KCS 2857
Title:  KCS 2857
Description:  From what I can tell, the large KCS on the hood was lost sometime in 2006 and never replaced. It just doesn't look right. The nose is quite shiny and clean, possibly from some recent repairs.

CCPN 1601
Title:  CCPN 1601
Description:  Wearing GWI orange and black and new CCPN reporting marks, this diesel was originally built for Atlantic Coast Line as GP7 175 in May 1951. After the ACL/Seaboard merger this became SCL 763, SCL 4792, SBD 4792, CSXT 1838, RLIX 438, RLIX 1601, and finally CCPN 1601. Please forgive the quality, I had to use a long lens and shoot through a chain link fence. This loco/number is new to the database. Thanks Randy for the history lesson on this diesel.

CCPN 9591
Title:  CCPN 9591
Description:  This SW1500 was originally delivered to Reading in August 1966 as 2752. When Reading was folded into Conrail this diesel traded yellow and green for Conrail blue and a can opener logo. Fast forward 47 years later and this old EMD is now wearing GWI orange and working on the warm Texas coast instead of the cold northeast.
