Nice to see a couple of these old warriors still in action. These units were rebuilt by CR(I think IC-Paducah may have done the rebuild, 40 plus years later my memory is a bit sketchy) and were done from GP 7's that CR inherited from PC and EL, though there were also GP7's from CNJ and RDG in the fleet. They were already 25 plus years old when CR got them. Now some of them are past 70 and still at it. Cool deal.
