GP40-2 756 at Kansas city, Missouri on August 30, 1980 (R. Bee).

The locomotives are in the Frisco’s 19th Street Yard. This is in the West Bottoms area near the confluence of the Kansas River as it flows into the Missouri River. In the distance above the nose of SLSF 756 is the distinctive roof support system of Kemper Arena.

Included in this view the rear of Frisco U30B 852. The locomotives are sitting on the locomotive ready tracks southwest of and adjacent to the locomotive service tracks and diesel shop. The view is looking Southwest.

Special thanks to Mark Davidson.

This was shot in the mechanical department’s locomotive service tracks area at West Yard. Visible in this view are the locomotive sanding tower (left of the locomotives), the top of the bulk sand storage tank with elevator (right of the locomotives) and the corner of the shed for the repair in place track.
