CRI&P GP7 1278 |
| Description: |
CRI&P GP7 1278, Burr Oak Yard, Blue Island, Illinois, May, 1976, photo by Steve Downey, Chuck Zeiler collection. Built in November 1952 (c/n 17609) on EMD Order 5155, it was rebuilt to GP7R 4539 and during 1981 became C&NW 4193. It appears the RI did not have a good handle on cooling system maintenance. |

Refueling 4209 at El Reno |
| Description: |
Rock Island bought ten GP7s from the Rio Grande in November 1972 and put them right to work with minimal change to markings. 4209 is the former DRGW 5113; it would subsequently be rebuilt and join the general population of Rock Geeps. |
