here are some pics of the 2754 as it has been hanging around here awhile so i thought i would post them these pics are a basis walk around but close enough to get the details and yes i know the BNSF police i worked mechanizied tie gang 6 under BN here are the first four pics more to come
Thanks for the pics! One question, the box that sits to the left (forward on the engine) side of the blower bulge, is it an electrical cabinet? I know it was added during the rebuild, but I'd like to know what to call it...
Good Lord-that thing get's around!! mg: First pic is in Kelso on National Train Day. The second is in Puyallup three days later!
Box I going to venture a guess is that it is a filter box of some kind, aux gen blower filter equipment blower filter? Something of that nature
yes it is it started life as either an N&W or SOUTHERN unit this is the outcome after rebuilding into a GP39
Thank you, I plan on doing an depth write up on my modeling of the GP39Es and I was stumped at what the box was. I know the GP30s had a lot of the electronics in the raised roof so it makes sense that the box is Dash-2 electrical. Thanks again!
The dynamics are still there, the GP30 cab was removed and replaced with a newer EMD cab during the rebuild.
