SP 7375
Title:  SP 7375
Description:  Espee SD40R 7375 and SD45T-2 9209 were parked on the old main line with an eastbound train in the Lafayette Yard. The new main line, which ran around the north side of the yard, is right on the other side of the train; while the tracks on this side of the train are Number 1 and 2. The small building on the left housed the electronic equipment for a weight-in-motion scale, and the tall signal helped a crew maintain the proper speed while weighing cars.
