Iowa Army National Guard Soldiers with the Camp Dodge Department of Public Works and Sustainment Training Center secure a set of historic railcar trucks for transport at Camp Dodge in Johnston, Iowa, on Aug. 3, 2022. Three flatbed railcars, a ramp and a short length of track were installed on Camp Dodge in the 1980s and served as a rail load training site for Soldiers for several years before railway operations became largely obsolete in the Iowa National Guard. The railcars rode on original friction bearing trucks, which are no longer used in modern, roller bearing railways. Rather than scrapping the railcars, the Camp Dodge Training Center arranged to have them transported to the James H. Andrew Railroad Museum in Boone, Iowa, for historical preservation.
