This is the Pizza Train. It usually has a Nickel Plate Road GP7 and a blue GP9, called ITM 200. The locomotive on the end is a Monon F7A, number 83-A. The train comes from the Indiana Transportation Museum in Noblesville, Indiana. Here's some info about the train and museum: The ITM is located in northern Noblesville. There is a big yard of locomotives and cars. They have a steam locomotive, Nickel Plate Road #587. This one is out of service for now, but it has been fixed by employees of the ITM. They have a Monon FP7, #96. It has had some engine problems for a while, but hopefully they can fix it up. The Pizza Train is a passenger train that starts at the Indiana Transportation Museum, (Noblesville, Indiana) and runs all the way up to Pizza Shack in Tipton, Indiana. It carries many people to dinner in Tipton. This train consists of ITM GP9 #200, 5 stainless steel budd coaches, and Monon F7A #83-A. I'm sorry about the huge glare, that's because I didn't have very much prep time to set my camera up. Hope you enjoy the PT

Norfolk Southern SD60 6699 (with its horn that sounds like a dying goose) moves a boxcar next to the lumber yard and moves some centerbeam cars from the lumber yard to the railyard out west. Taken at Green Street crossing in Tipton, Indiana on August 29, 2008. I think this SD60 could use a new horn since it sound like one the chimes is broken.

Monon F7 83-A (Ex-Milwaukee Road 110-C) pulls the Pizza Train through Tipton, Indiana at 5:45 PM. Two hours later at 7:45, the museum's New York, Chicago, and St. Louis GP7, 426, pulls the train back to the museum. My little camera just can't bear the horn on the GP7.

Norfolk Southern SD40-2 6151 leaves the large railyard in Tipton, Indiana, and goes around the curved track near the Tipton Depot. Yes, I do have a tripod, but I didn't have it at the moment.

The ITM's ex-MILW F7 leads the Pizza Train over Park Road in Tipton, Indiana. And, as usual, some idiot ignores the signals.
