Western Railroad Discussion > Cimarron Valley RR, SD50s assisted by GP30Date: 08/15/17 11:23 Cimarron Valley RR, SD50s assisted by GP30 Author: ts2100 I caught the CVR arriving in Dodge City today. The power lash-up included a GP30 and former D&RGW SD50.

Actually, I think 4227 is an ex-C&O engine. The ex-Rio Grande GP30s still have their original 30XX numbers. The ex-UP 9861 is ex-DRGW 5517. CVR 5111 is ex-C&NW 7005. Z Date: 08/15/17 17:26 Re: Cimarron Valley RR, SD50s assisted by GP30 Author: ts2100 zephyrus Wrote:

I was certain SD50 9861 was ex-D&RGW, and was thinking all of the CVR GP30s were ex-D&RGW, but didn't know for sure - I know a couple of them were lost in a wreck years ago, so hopefully the CVR still has at least one that is former Rio Grande.

3004,14,23,24 still there. Can't remember which one wiped the crankshaft out. It's sitting. |
