Brian Connolly General What an unbelievable consist! I've never before seen a shot with both high-nose and standard cab GP30s in the same lineup. Nice! 5/28/2009 7:35:33 PM

Earl Hampton General When I used to work at NE Tower, the dispatchers would go ballistic when I would give them the engine numbers in a consist like this. Almost immediately they would issue an order First No 194 Eng 2604 swap power with No 193 at meeting point. Always would get the junk back home asap, refering to Espee GP20s and 30s 5/13/2010 12:01:19 PM
