I was back in Indy today and had a chance to drive to the Beech Grove shops for a few pictures. The weather was terrible - rainy and hazy. Hope it clears before the race tomorrow.
Anyway, after checking in at the Amtrak Police Office for permission to shot pictures from the fence line, I noticed that the Pacific Parlor car that had been parked near the manl entrance was now gone. Don't know if they finished it or if it was inside somewhere being worked on.
Right out front were several Superliner cars striped of all markings. Looked like they might be ready for the paint shop.
Down the row from those cars was a string of baggage cars. Hard to say what was going on with them.
On the east side of the front of the yards there were a couple of Superliners sitting waiting for repairs.
And, further out in the storage area, a sightseer that was really torn apart. It had glass out and all the exterior panel doors were gone.
Back in the west storage area I saw this Santa Fe car, Mohave, sitting by itself.
Evidently belongs to this outfit.
Sorry for the pictures with the fence in them. In may places the ground was muddy and wet to the place I couldn't get close to the fence.
Questions - comments - let me know.
