Train 201 At Othello

Guest post by Ryan Reed.

In 1977, train 201 is about to cross West Main Street rolling toward the Othello depot. The structure in the background is Othello's very own Soil and Crop Services - a family run business dating back to the early 1960s. While the Milwaukee Road had a strong presence in Othello, so did the companies that made the town what it was.

The Bicentennial 156 is second unit, probably the last time on Lines West, before getting repainted. Looks pretty filthy!

I'm glad it's still around today.

Yup, hopefully restored too!
