Railcar 4662 was built by Pullman Standard and outshopped on April 29, 1929 and classified GEG-350. Self-propelled cars such as this were usually referred to as "Doodlebugs" by railroaders. Originally powered by two Winton 175hp gasoline engines, 4662 was rebuilt in 1943 with two Cummins HBIS-6 175hp diesel engines and reclassified OEG-350.Railcar 4662 was built by Pullman Standard and outshopped on April 29, 1929 and classified GEG-350.
