What were the circumstances that led to LV purchasing new GP38's? I thought I read that LV was largely bankrupt when the order was placed, so the government guaranteed a loan to purchase them, since they realized these new engines would be going to the Conrail fleet (in reality, they ended up on D&H since they got first round draft pick).
When were the GP38's ordered? When were they delivered?
They are among my favorite engines on the LV.
