Boone & Scenic Valley RR

	This locomotive was designed and built in China and was a gift to the United States. All the controls in this piece are labeled in Chinese. China sent a delegation of technicians to train the engineers to operate the locomotive and interpret the Chinese symbols and markings. (Photo taken 2004)

	This appears to be a diesel electric 60 tonner, but I could be wrong. I didn't see it in the equipment roster, or I missed it altogether. Fort Dodge, DesMoines & Southern. (Photo taken 2004)
