Windsor & Hansport (WHRC) |
Description: |
A couple of us Fremont Northwestern guys made trips to assess locomotives for purchase, back when FNW was cranking. At the time, junk EMDs were $100k and running Alcos were $20k, so the math was easy. One stop was the WHRC which had all its RS23s up for sale, against the wishes of the line's GM. The GM said the line's owner was forcing them to go EMD, and the RS23s always started and ran, and were better on fuel. WHRC was trying to sell all the units together and wouldn't sell individual units, which was too much $$ for us to bite off. Eventually, I heard all of them were scrapped for their 251 engines and electical gear. |

Description: |
Looking for More Power, we stopped at Windsor to talk to them about their RS23s, which were for sale. The line's GM told us he really didn't want to sell the units, since they really ran well. The line's owner, a holding company, was pushing for EMDs. He wanted all 8 sold in a block, and wouldn't sell single units. Couldn't afford that, so had to let them go. |
