Some NHN locomotive photo history.
Conrail 7065 and 7083, which would become NHN 1756 and 1757
at the P&W shop in Worcester MA on 6/5/85. The P&W would
paint the two locomotives into the NHN green and yellow scheme.

The 1756 would be sold to GRS/PAR. Reportedly, GRS/PAR considered
converting the 1756 into slug, but ultimately parted it out and scrapped
the leftovers.

The 1757 is now owned by the 470 Railroad Club and resides at the Conway Scenic RR.
There is a plan to use the 1757 as a parts doner to get the B&M 4268 operational. That
is a major project, to say the least. IMO, whether it ever happens remains to be seen.
