Hello ,
I am looking for pictures of RSSX 1802, it is a CF 7 . Any idea where to find them on the web ? Does someone knows what happens to RSSX 7009, a CF7 too, becomes it repainted or scrapped ? Actual pictures are welcome. I am just working at a 0 gauge CF 7
regards

Roland,
Did a Google search, found this site which I thought you might find interesting:
http://skipg.homeip.net/gallery/RSSM-Rail-Switching-Services-of-Missouri?page=1
Sorry, but it doesn’t appear to include 1802 or its sister CF7.
The 1987 Trains article on CF7 dispersal to short lines:

might include a photo of one of them.

Roland,

Unfortunately for the link listed in the reply above, that is a completely different company. Railroad Switching Service of Missouri (RSSM) is not the same as Rail Switching Service - now Railserve, Inc. (RSSX).

I have photos of CF7 #1802, which has been renumbered to it’s x-MSRC number, #7011: www.erixpix.com/indust/rssx/roster/rssx7011a.jpg

RSSX #7009 was repainted & shipped to a new startup contract in Brunswick, GA.

Hope this helps.
