OSRX #175 |
Description: |
A GP9 built by EMD in 1956 as C & O #6193 (Chesapeake & Ohio Railway). Serial number 22576, 1750 h.p. It later worked coal mines in Kimper, Kentucky as Ridgeway Coal #6193 and then New Ridge Mining #59. Znidar Brothers, which had been the switching contractor at CPR's Vaughan Intermodal Facility, owned the unit until 2002. It then became OSRX #175. You can still see portions of the old Chessie Systems C & O markings under the paint. |
