Surviving PC locomotives.

[PRRGuy]

I don't remember about the PRR info, it's been awhile since I posted that.

Here's a couple more for you.


IBCX 88 (SW7)- NYC 8853

ILSX 1371-SW1- Ex PRR 9128

There is an SW1, TCCA 735, that works at Bridgewater Transfer facilty in Bridgewater, NJ. The TCCA 735 was built for the NYC.

From the latest issue of Railpace, NYS&W has recently acquired 5 former PC GP38-2s:

CSXT #2725 > CR #8065 > nee PC #8065
CSXT #2732 > CR #8087 > nee PC #8087
NS #5273 > CR #8063 > nee PC #8063
NS #5293 > CR #8097 > nee PC #8097
NS #5294 > CR #8099 > nee PC #8099

You mean NYSW actually acquired some of those GP38-2! Wow, miss a week miss alot. Those units must have been pricy.

I type in Brown because I can.

[trainspot]

I believe they were leased, not purchased.

[uhaul]

That is what I thought. Well I have heard it called Rumor Pace recently, but maybe this is one of those rumors with truthiness in it.

I type in Brown because I can.

[Matt Langworthy]

Actually, the mistake is mine, not Railpace's, so please accept my apology. I assumed received meant acquired, when they are not the same. An NS message board reports the units are leased to Suzie-Q.

At any rate, it's nice to know some of PC's loco fleet is still active.

I do not know if this one was listed or linked since I did not read all 13 pages of posts.

You can clearly see the Penn Central markings and the CR markings underneath. Photos are from 2007 in the state of Kansas.

Interesting...

Wow zablocki22, I did not realize any locomotive like that was still bombing around. Quite surprised the Penn Central paint is still there and what a great catch.

and WAMX 3817 is PC 7788.
The only known loco still roaming around in its PC paint!

(PC 7049 at Larrys is also in PC paint, but its a museum re-paint, not original PC paint)
