    Description

    Still thinning out my collection since moving to Colorado.  Brought the last of stuff that I had in storage in Texas, but still needing to get rid of it.  I'm not interested in making a huge profit, but need to make it worth my while in time and packaging as I piecemeal this stuff out to others to hold and cherish for the next 40 to 50 years. I have sold off much of my collection over the last twenty years or so and now it's getting down to items that meant the most to me as I whittle the collection down to a further, smaller core of items.
    EMD ON-THE-ROAD TROUBLE-SHOOTING
    booklet
    No. TS-2
    for
    Model F3 and F7
    locomotives. Second Edition, April 1, 1949. 16 pages plus cover.
    This booklet looks to have been carried in the hip pocket a lot back in the day and the cover is worn and the pages are stained. It is complete, though, and the thing that made it one of the favorites in my collection was that it belonged to
    Harry L. Anderson, A.S.D.E.
    (Assistant Supervisor Diesel Engines),
    G.C. & S.F. RR
    , Houston, Texas.
    The other thing that made it more valuable for me were the notes that Harry made in it regarding trainlining the batteries.
    Great item for the serious collector, museum, F3/F7 operator or mechanic or railroad owner of such a beast.
