ELS 101
Title:  ELS 101
Description:  In the storage line at Wells and buried behind flats was 101, a super rare DS44-660 and original E&LS engine. This unit used to be a regular runner on ELS, and I wonder if it could"run again....Coupled at the nose is RS12 #207, which ran on the Nicolet Badger Northern, a shortline over in Wisconsin.

ELS 212
Title:  ELS 212
Description:  The story behind 212, as I hear it, was it was halfway thru a full overhaul that never got finished. When ELS expanded in the 1980s thru purchase of Milwaukee Road trackage north of Green Bay, they reportedly intended on running mostly Baldwins. The reason was simple-Baldwins require much lower fuel consumption per horsepower than EMDs. To this end, they overhauled RS12 #300 and started 212. Alas, the rigors of keeping a couple hundred miles of trackage and multiple daily trains going took over priorities.
