GREX 6007
Title:  GREX 6007
Description:  GREX 6007 SPS® (Self-Powered SlotMachine®) in the CN, former SOO, yard off N. Linwood Ave. at W. College Ave. at Appleton Junction, WI on 13 May '17. The SlotMachine® work platform, GREX 60540, consists of several gondolas permanently connected with articulated couplings. There are no bulkheads between the cars, so an excavator can traverse the entire length of the train’s floor to load or unload material. This small yard used to serve as an interchange for the SOO and Chicago & North Western (C&NW). Later it served as an intermodal yard for the WC.
