MP GP7 134
Title:  MP GP7 134
Description:  MP GP7 134 at McCook, Illinois on an unknown day in August 1979, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Number 134 was built as StLB&M GP7 4119 in July 1950 (c/n 11552), renumbered to MP 134 an an unknown date, retired in August 1979 and is seen here at Pielet Brothers. Note the extra front numberboard, for which I have no explanation. Update, please see Comment below, thanks to Joseph Yarbrough.

On the MoPac, a select few GP7's had a 'crew cab'. These units were originally on the Texas & Pacific and Gulf Coast Lines. Outwardly they looked like any regular Geep with the exception that the crew-cabs were modified with an extra set of number board cut-outs/windows that were exactly the same size as the number boards located just below the usual number boards on the short hood/nose. Behind the windows inside the cab sat a spare seat... right beside the typical toilet. The 'crew-cab' GP7s used by I-GN and STLB&M (series 4116-4123) were equipped with crew-cabs (modified circa 1953): 4117, 4119, 4120, 4122, and 4123. Since no other unit's received the crew cab, it's speculated that this modification may have been a 'Texas thing' for the brakeman to ride inside the unit.

Number 228 was built in March 1952 as MP GP7 4230 (c/n 16154), was renumbered to 228 sometime after the 1961 general renumbering, and was upgraded to 1600 horsepower with MP's own four-stack exhaust manifold, which reduced back pressure by as much as 70% (translating into about a 10% increase in horsepower). Renumbered to 1670 (1st) around 1974, it was retired in December 1979.
