MSI-Chicago Katos Reach Idaho

Jul 20, 2004 0 Replies

The 2206 mile trek for three Kato SD70MACs from Chicago to Seattle started quite accidentally...they were all kept together... has now turned into a serious effort to see if three HO scale models can actually cover the real-life distance depicted on the MSI-Chicago's Great Train Story. Well another milestone was reached Tuesday, the trio reached Sandpoint, ID; milepost 1807. That also means they've left Montana...HOORAY!! Man, that's a big state. They've been in MT since May. Expected arrival in Seattle, you ask....sometime in September. Days out on the road so far....206. Do they still have that Kato sound....You must be kiddin'.
