Brad Waterman	General	This German equipment was captured in Europe and shipped to the US to exploit the technology and test. They were stored at Eustis until 1952 or '53 when they were scrapped....what a complete and total shame, especially for the 05 Class loco.	9/4/2020 1:39:32 PM

I saw these pictures my dads photo album from the army and have been curious for about 45 years where they were taken. The German locomotives through me off. Pretty rare pictures my dad took.
