As the late Paul Harvey would say, "And now, for the...rest...of the story." MMA sold off a batch of the B39-8s a couple of years ago. Shortline holding company Iowa Pacific picked them up, and scattered them among several operations. By the time this photo was taken on the Arizona Eastern last year, I believe all but this one had received SLRG sublettering, and it since has. But imagine my surprise when breaking through the static on the scanner, I hear a track warrant being issued to "MMA 8560" in the middle of Arizona.
