NRE Silvis Power Variety - I had an opportunity to visit the NRE Plant in 2019 before its closing. Here is an example of the great variety and color of power the plant had in its storage lines. Over a 100 Locomotives from FURX, SF, UP, BN, LMX, SP, IHB and Minnesota Commercial, and many more in many different storage lines.

Rick Doughty (63) I have been photographing trains since 1975. My favorite railroad is the Denver & Rio Grande Western. My photos have been featured in CTC Board, Railfan & Railroad, Railroads Illustrated, many railroad book and motive power annuals. I also enjoy severe weather photography and storm chasing. I play drums for my local church. I live in southern Idaho with my wonderful wife Stacey, who enjoys going with me on train watching adventures.
