Kimball Co-Op Geep
Author: railtime

The Co-Op in Kimball,NE has an old geep for switching their hoppers. It is nice to see the old war horses get another life rather then the scrap yard. It would be nice to start seeing some of these old timers get stuffed and mounted someplace instead of becoming s tin can.

Thanks for looking

john

Looking at the number and number boards it appears to be exConrail GP10 7516. If it is it would have been CR GP9 7011 before rebuild and exPC 7011 & exPRR 7011 before that.

Thanks for the nice look at a 57 year old GP. Odd, but of this class of 50 delivered between October/November 1955, it appears only six were rebuilt.
