Comments on: “Topeka Cab” MRI (Mohall Railroad Inc) 2180 sits tied down between assignments at the Richardson Pioneer elevator in Corinne Saskatchewan. MRI is owned/operated by the NPR (Northern Plains Railroad) which is also in the locomotive leasing business. The unit is still wearing colours of previous owner New Orleans & Gulf Coast Railroad. Originally built for ATSF in 10/1952, this unit has sure been around. http://www.railpictures.ca The BEST Canadian photos on the Internet, eh?
