Something interesting from the Green Bay Press Gazette

On the forthcoming move of 60008 Dwight D. Eisenhower (a man with some connections to Hampshire) from Green Bay to the UK.

60008 was repainted and moved by rail to Abilene, KS in 1990 to mark the centenary of Eisenhower's birth.

With thanks to a colleague in the USA.
