The Rise of the Diesel-Electric Locomotive | The Henry Ford’s Innovation Nation
The Henry Ford
Jan 19, 2018
After World War II, the “dieselization” of American railroads was rapid. The period from about 1945 to 1960 is often called the “Transition Era” on American railroads. Newly-purchased diesel-electric locomotives worked alongside veteran steamers as railroad companies replaced their fleets. In 1945, diesel-electrics hauled just seven percent of the nation’s freight trains. Of the 21,000 new locomotives bought between 1945 and 1955, fully 95 percent were diesel-electric.

It will eventually show up as an anomaly on a high resolution magnetic areal survey in the future.
If it's under the ice somewhere, it should be easy to detect such a large ferric mass. The right satellite in orbit could find it easily. If it's on the ocean sea floor, it would be a little more challenging. Yes, it should be found, and it would be a very interesting museum piece if it's in good condition.

Imagine the napalm potential. Or is that what napalm is gelled petroleum?
