While the Earle RR is hard to catch, every time I have seen the train, out on the pier at least, its been powered by the SWs - I haven't seen the Baldwins in a LONG time. Thats not to say they aren't used, but I haven't seen them in a long time, only the SWs, and I have NEVER seen the 80tonner, in the Leonardo area at least

The navy RR is a very interesting operation, and I hope that it continues for the future, as its just a part of life living in the area to hear the trains going by at all wierd hours of the day and night!

Until the GE 80-ton is repaired - a very unlikely event, since the base's railway operations branch never wanted it in the first place - it will continue to sit outside the enginehouse in the main base area, far from Leonardo.
