Behind the Triad: Locomotives of Fort McCoy
Fort McCoy Public Affairs Office
June 12, 2024 | 3:09
Garrison Commander Col. Stephen Messenger visits with Terry Altman, Installation Transportation Officer at the Fort McCoy Logistics Readiness Center, and Bill Peters, locomotive engineer with the Fort McCoy rail operations support team in this edition of Behind the Triad. As one of the few installations to have Army locomotives a part of regular transportation operations, that also means Fort McCoy has to have the right people in place oversee the rail operations when those locomotives are in use. Those people are the Fort McCoy rail operations support team. That team is staffed by people working with the Fort McCoy Logistics Readiness Center (LRC) Transportation Division and contractors partnering with LRC. This includes people operating locomotives to move railcars in place for loading, people working with units and unit service members to get training on how to load railcars, people to assist with moving cargo, and more. The red Army locomotives in use at Fort McCoy are General Motors EMD GP-9 locomotives that weigh 120 tons; stand 15 feet, 4 inches tall; and have 1,750 horsepower. Learn more about all of it by seeing this episode of Behind the Triad. (U.S. Army Video by Claudia Neve, Fort McCoy Public Affairs Office)
