| Remarks & Notes |
| Double Vision. Western Maryland's first GP9, the 25, was also the first to receive a chop nose, and as a result was the only GP9 or 7 on the roster to feature a two piece center windshield. The 25 was built in May of 1954 on order no. 5344, with a builder number of 19548. It had its high short hood chopped by the Hagerstown shop forces in February of 1962. Today it is in operation for the Georges Creek and Cumberland, having been restored to its mid 60's appearance by the WM Scenic shop forces. Here it is on its first run with its new paint at Frostburg. |
