250 Ton Wrecker Train out of Galesburg, Illinois

["spodwo" <spodwo@y...>]

Does anyone have any photos, data, etc. of the wrecker train that 
was based out of Galesburg? My dad worked that train and I remember 
the "eyes and shark" teeth that were painted on the crane boom nose 
for the First "Open House" [precursor to Galesburg Railroad Days]. 

I have some photos somewhere but I was looking for specific data on 
it. Was it a Bucyrus-Erie 250?

Thanks!
