| NYC GP7 5746, Chicago, Illinois, March 7, 1965, photo by Chuck Zeiler. Built in May 1953 (c/n 18450) on EMD Order 5183, it was apparently built with a steam generator, since removed, according to a note in the book, Diesel Locomotive Rosters, The Railroad Magazine Series. The NYC class changed from DRSP-4n to DRS-4n as a result of the generator removal. It retained its NYC road number when it went from NYC to PC to CR. It was scrapped by CR at Hollidaysburg, Pennsylvania. It is seen here heading east on CB&Q tracks, having left the Q's Cicero Yard which is just beyond the bridges in the background. It appears this locomotive has been named. |
