OTHER GP40 pictorial, part III

I have a few more to offer, this time smaller image sizes:

This one was elusive and shot with a 300mm lens handheld!

A recent repaint into Seaboard System paint!

Another recent repaint:

Those are nice shots Harold. I especially am impressed with the one caught while hand holding a 300 mm lens!

Are any of them still in service? Probably I've seen all of them pass through here over the years, but I don't pay any attention to numbers. I really should, then I'd know what you knowledgeable types are talking about.

 

At least check, I think there were only 3 unrebuilt GP40's left on CSX, out of the hundreds that they originally rostered.

Harold

 

Wait! There are a couple more GP40's left!

Unfortunately, they are GP40 bodies that are now road mates (slugs)

Another one, back in SCL paint:

Another recent repaint (at the time of the picture)

Family lines scheme:

At first glance, this looks out of focus, due to the road numbers... I think it is having an identity crisis!

It is getting dark in Hamlet... a GP40 shown paired with another in a different scheme:

Here's a renumber... I think it is in old Conrail style numbers:

Here's a 'repaint"



Harold

 

Same unit, update paint scheme (pretty much same pose too!)!

Another CSX repaint:

Back to SCL paint scheme:


Harold

 

A SCL paint scheme, mated to another SCL unit # 553, one of the last GP38-2's delivered to SCL.. (#555 was the last)


Harold

 

A repaint with weird "block" numbering:



Harold

 

Another repaint, with old CR style numbers... if you look closely, you can see the old "Seaboard" (Air Line) lettering
