Nostalgia & History > SP GP9E ActionDate: 09/13/11 10:52 SP GP9E Action Author: SuperC Top: The 3186 was working the West Valley local on the Hamilton Branch back in May of 1986. The boxcar was a very old CB&Q double door.
Bottom: Two units with fresh red and grey paint were working in Redding, Ca. back in January of 1988. Adam Date: 09/13/11 11:06 Re: SP GP9E Action Author: JimBaker Nice catch !!

I needed that scarlet and gray! Thanks! :) Date: 09/13/11 15:22 Re: SP GP9E Action Author: Lone Star It looks like the trailing unit in the first photo is the #3191, judging by the M-5 horn.

You can see the steam connection under the coupler on the 3186 and the slide out number boards on the second unit. Nice shots, by the way!
