Western Railroad Discussion > 62-year-old GRSX 112 still pulling yard duty

It's taken me a long time, but I finally managed to get some pictures today of GRSX 112, a 62-year-old GP 9 locomotive, that serves Greenbrier Rail Services at the switch yard in Osawatomie, Kan.  The engine was moving a small cut of cars at the east end of the yard when I arrived on the scene.

When I checked on this engine unit in the past, it has usually been buried somewhere in the yard, not suitable for any decent photos.

This engine was orginally a SOO Line locomotive, No. 2406. I think it later had a couple of other owners before Greenbrier.

Old EMD's just keep soldiering on.

The number would indicate this was an ex-IMRL unit that may have served on the ICE before the CP acquisition.
I can be corrected on this.
