Metra 417 stands ready to haul a few empty reefers out to the nearby Ore-Ida plant.

The work is done already and it is heading back to Chicago. Metra is replacing the static inverter HEP in their MP36s with a more traditional separate engine (CAT) supplying HEP. 417 was the first conversion, the rest will be done by Metra in Chicago.
