"S" folks
Not to beat a lame horse but to bring correct information on this 
matter of John Luther Jones.
The song has nothing to do with the UP. Casey Jones first worked for 
the M&O (Mobile and Ohio) before they merged with the Gulf and 
Northern,  Yep, they named it the Gulf Mobile and Ohio. The greatest 
North/South Class 1 railroad in the Universe.... IMO :-}
The following link will take you to the ballad of Casey Jones. 
I will now get back on track and work on getting some photos of the 
detailed RS-3's in the photo section like I said I would.

Yall have a good day.
