RS1: 467- privately owned in Indiana, owner plans to restore it to operating condition. 

RPCX-467exLIRR467BeesonsIN12-21-09johnowens.jpg (49128 bytes)The 467 really got around once it left here working for railroads in Ohio and Indiana.  Its last assignment was for Indiana Hi-Rail as their 167. It started out as 467 on their roster and then they renumbered it for some reason. It sat around their shop for awhile and last I heard it was sold to some guy from Long Island who lives out of state.   It's supposed to get painted into the Tichy scheme...or was, but that plan may have changed.  John Scala
