Note the GP26 (IC 2601) cut-in behind the lead GP38-2. IC 2601 was one of two ex-GM&O GP30 locomotives remanufactured at ICG's Paducah (KY) shops. The two GP26 locomotives bear absolutely NO resemble to the GP30 after being remanufactured. The other GP26 was IC 2602. The ICG GP26 program was abandoned after 2601 and 2602 were built. IC 2601 and 2602 were later transferred to the Cimmaron Valley, and lettered for Southwestern Railroad. Thanks for sharing Dan.
