GP38AC 637 at Kansas City, Missouri in July 1972 (Vernon Ryder).

This view is of the engine facility service tracks at 19th Street Yard. The locomotive is on service track number one. The shadow in the lower left corner is from the diesel shop building. The building on the right houses locker rooms, offices and storage. The view is looking southwest.

In the distance, at the south end of the yard, is the bridge for West 22nd Street. This bridge is adjacent to the facilities for American Royal. Just to the west, after it crosses the Kansas River and into Kansas City, Kansas, the road name becomes Kansas Avenue.

Special thanks to Mark Davidson.
