Re: Metro North GP8 #543 up for sale #1483457 by R36 Combine Coach Sun Aug 19, 2018 9:08 pm Noticed on the FRA cab card (included in the sale offer) a 1978 build date. 543 was originally NYC GP7 5770, with 6/1953 delivery date. Out of service date 5/31/09. Since my friend continues to chain smoke nonstop, she is probably an Alco. Username R36 Combine Coach Posts 6493 Joined Mon Jun 09, 2008 8:51 pm
