BRS opened shop not too long before these were taken. BRS is supposed to primarily be a collect and sort yard for the local plastics plants, but, by virtue of having other customers, it has to be a common-carrier. #63 is parting the dust on a sticky March day with a train. |

HTR 646 |
| Description: |
This is one of those "use up your luck for the next year" circumstances. On my way back from Utah visiting my son, I stopped by remote Hudson to see if I could anything sitting within telephoto distance. So did not expect to find a 539 engined Alco working away. I still had 9 hours of driving after this, was a little late getting back to MO that night.... |
