The "Bleep"

Hello guys (and gals!),

Was wondering what the status was on the EMD re-engined Baldwin that wags got to calling the “Bleep”. Last I saw of it, it was in Topeka’s dead line several years ago, but was at the frontof the line,so I don’t know if it was up for sale or just switching the other unfortunates to be scrapped. Also in attendance was one of the electric-motored snow plows that were converted from steam loco tenders. I can’t recall the number on this one, but I had seen it in the former Burlington yards in North KC, MO the year before.

At that time I worte the railroad, but they couldn’t give me the status on it and I’ve been wondering what happened to it.

I think you mean “Beep”, as I’ve never heard of the “Bleep”.

This website says the “Beep” was still at Topeka in early 06. Check it out:
