HZRX 3134 is a new listing to rrpa.  Contributor's Pick!       
You can see the patched over Southwestern on the long hood and also an SW on the cab. Here's some history on this unit. Owner: Southwestern Railroad Company Model: EMD GP40 Built As: PC 3118 (GP40) Serial Number: 34295 Order No: 7127 Frame Number: 7127-14 Built: 8/1968 Notes: ex-PC Other locos with this serial: DRGW 3134(GP40) PC 3118(GP40) CR 3118(GP40) SW 3134(GP40) The new reporting marks don't line up with anything on my sheet, but I'm thinking Herzog.

Alan Fricker General Old PC GP40s never die, they just work for more railroads or leasers or whatever.... 7/5/2015 11:40:47 AM

Tim Darnell General Interesting catch & history there! 7/7/2015 8:36:27 AM
Switchman Images General This one is going to die, unfortunately becoming another one of these "green" abominations by Horizon Rail. The ones from NRE, Railpower, WabTec aren't any better either. 8/8/2015 1:45:57 PM
MARY ARMSTRONG General Horizon Rail or I should say HZRX-Locomotive Leasing LLC., only does complete from the ground up restorations. I take offense that you would assume Horizon Rail intentions without speaking to any of us. We understand this locomotives history as want to preserve that. You should check out our previous restored locomotives. 9/11/2015 10:46:12 PM
Fred Stuckmann General Unfortunately, I can't stop another's opinion, thanks for your insight Mary. 9/11/2015 10:48:52 PM
