CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – A closeup of the cab on NASA Railroad locomotive 3 which was recently refurbished by the Railroad Operation and Maintenance Team at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The 15-month process, including a new paint scheme, dealt with extensive corrosion to the locomotive because of Kennedy's proximity to the Atlantic Ocean. Locomotives 1 and 2 also will be refurbished eventually. The NASA Railroad locomotives are SW-1500 switch engines built by Electro Motive Diesel (EMD). Photo credit: NASA/Amanda Diller
