Railroad photo of the day

#594 putters around at what I think is the east end of the North La Crosse yard on a warm July day in 1974. It’s likely that I’m somewhere around (probably down by the river lurking around the roundhouse; if I was up here I’d be on the service road those two dogs are walking down) unless I was on summer holiday in New Hampshire at the time.
(#594 is now – renumbered to #988 and in an uglier paint scheme at the Mid-Continent RR Museum – the sole survivor of the huge pile of RSC2s that the Milwaukee Road operated in the midwest.)
