ICG GP8 7709 |
| Description: |
ICG GP8 7709, Paducah, Kentucky, June 25, 1986, photo by Chuck Zeiler. Number 7709 was built in June 1952 as P&LE GP7 5722 (later renumbered to P&LE 1515, c/n 16349) on EMD Order 6369. During 1974 it was rebuilt at the ICG's Paducah, Kentucky Shops to GP8 7709. It is seen here cutting off a coal train. The 7709 and associates will pull ahead and off on a side track. The 6005 will then pull up and couple onto 7709's train and leave town. I'm not sure why this happened, since 6005 has cut off a coal train (seen in the background) except to speculate that 7709 had some ailing power in its consist, or perhaps then ICG needed to balance power on its system. |
