Posted by J. C. Smith, Jr. on December 11, 2007  Since the AC6000s, at least those built domestically, have their air reservoirs tucked under the walkway on the engineer's side, should we assume the smaller tanks, cut into the left-side fuel tank on BHP 6077, are for some sort of supplemental braking system for the ore cars? Also, those ex-SP SD40Rs sure did get spread around! Nice shot Chris. Posted by John Blair on December 11, 2007  Thanks for sharing Chris.
