    Leave it to the McGinnis folks to make a weird transformation of an RDC-1. Budd built a wonderful series of RDCs. Why screw it up?

    The hood louvers indicate a GP9, too.

    The color scheme and Minute Man emblem on the cab indicate ex-B&M. Only the road name was changed to protect the guilty. LOL

    Amazed the B&M didn't have lines printed in the body of the train order.
