SW1500 327 at Springfield, Missouri on January 17, 1981.

This is the Mechanical Department’s service tracks area east of the Springfield Diesel Shop. The subject locomotive is sitting on Service Track 2 and facing west.

Under the shed behind the locomotive are covered Service Tracks 3, 4 and 5. Tracks 4 and 5 have between the rail gauge inspection pits, fuel stands with hoses, water and lube oil hoses. These two tracks were also served by a traveling sand gantry.

Special thanks to Mark Davidson.
