Rock Island GP7 1221
Title:  Rock Island GP7 1221
Description:  Not quite your average GP7, Rock Island 1221 was rebuilt 'in kind' by EMD in 1961 with two subtle signs shown here, including a forward mounted fuel filler and standard 1600 gallon fuel tank, as opposed to the 800G tank as originally delivered. It's shown here at Liberal in 1973 in maroon with silver stripes. Scanned from a very wrinkled print.
