Louisiana Midland Railroad #1107 Ex-GM&O #1107

Louisiana Midland Railroad (LOAM) RS-1 #1107 ex-Gulf Mobile & Ohio #1107.

1107 was built new for Gulf Mobile & Ohio Railroad in April of 1945. It was placed out of service on April 9, 1969 with the merger of GM&O and the Illinois Central Railroad. 1107 was bought by the Louisiana Midland Railroad (LOAM) in April of 1974. It was placed out of service in August 1975 due to a blown head gasket. It was used for parts until completely scrapped out in 1982. The remains was bought by a local resident where it remains on his property to this day.

[gmo1107]

@TrainGuy18 Sorry for the late reply: The old ALCO is on private land in the Belah, Louisiana. Belah is a small community near Jena, Louisiana. I visit her about twice a year or when I have a little time to spare (with the owners permission) the weather sure has taken a toll on her since this video. If your ever down this way or anybody else that veiws this comment I will be proud to take you to her.
