NIPSCO SE-1 |
| Description: |
by Esther Fairchild: Northern Indiana Public Service Company engine SE-1 leans against a cut of coal loads during rotary-dumping operation at Michigan City Generating Station (which is a coal-fired power plant; don't let that nuke-like cooling tower fool you). Close-up photos of this baby-blue beauty are in my "Industry Locomotives" album on my site here. |

NIPSCO SE-1 |
| Description: |
by Esther Fairchild: Northern Indiana Public Service Company Michigan City Generating Station plant locomotive used to handle coal cars through the rotary dumper. Looks like it was made from whatever spare parts were lying around. Sounds like a bulldozer when moving. Notice the single flap-covered stack. |

NIPSCO SE-1 |
| Description: |
by Esther Fairchild: another view of the NIPSCO SE-1. You can see the flap-stack better here - right in the middle of the roof. I'm guessing those red tanks on the side near the cab are part of the fire-suppression equipment in case the baby-blue beast lights up. The engine looks like it is set up for remote-control operation, but when I saw it someone was in the cab (hopefully an employee!). These pictures violate my "no fence" policy but the handsome SE-1 seldom, if ever, comes out from behind the fence so these will just have to do for now. |
