Nice picture.  According to RR Picture Archives it was built 9//63 as GM&O #525 and is now CSXT slug #2250 with EMD trucks.  Unfortunately, I don't have a good picture of it.  Gerry

Good photo but I have to admit I liked them better in the Black & White paint scheme with the zebra stripes on the nose as they roared through my home town.

They sure got their money back on those ALCO trucks.
Thanks for the nice roster post.

And a repainted GP35 ex-GM&O behind it.  Thanks for posting.

Nice, I never noticed the double set of horns on these.  I thought only the C&O had twin sets on their 30's.

A split-manifold S5T, due to height clearance restrictions.

The orange and white ICG, plus the orange and gray actually look presentable when clean/new. Before the inevitable deterioration their paint would suffer...
