FM In Texas
Title:  FM In Texas
Description:  During the early 1970s vhe railfan press spent a lot of ink (and rightfully so) on the SP's Fairbanks Morse fleet in the San Francisco Bay area. The road also had a small OP outpost in El Paso anj Tucscon during the same timeframe that didn't seem to get as much attention. 2394 was one of the West Texas FMs- it's shown in the Cotton Street Yard in Jan 1974.

NYC FM H-12-44 #9115 - New York Central
Title:  NYC FM H-12-44 #9115 - New York Central
Description:  Interesting Christmas card (circa early 1950's) displaying the shiny Fairbanks-Morse H-12-44 #9115 in an unidenitifed location. The 1200 hp FM unit was built in 1951 and was classified as des-17a. Then in 1966 it was reclassified as fs12m and renumbered 8304. A year later in 1967, it along with several others in the class were sold to GE, most likely as trade-ins for GE units. Can anyone identify this location?
