My info came from Jerry Pinkepank's original Diesel Spotters Guide, page GE-7 and the following website: http://members.trainweb.com/bedt/indloco/btphotos.html Date: 12/07/18 11:59 Re: OTD: one of only 7 built ('60) Author: sixaxlecentury I imagine the 8th is not very well known. There is a photo of it in the 1927 Ingersoll-Rand Oil Electric booklet.
