Eastern Railroad Discussion > Three Oldies at Durand on FridayDate: 07/22/17 06:41 Three Oldies at Durand on Friday Author: jkh2cpu That GTW loco was new to GTW in August, 1954.
We get lots of new, and lots of older equipment thru Durand on a daily basis. Sadly these days we are not seeing so much foreign power, so our excitement comes from both the rumbling of the trains and the possibility of something on the older side. John.

GTW undertook a big rebuild project on the GP9 fleet in the early 90s, including the new cabs found on these units.
