Lead engine on a train resting over a weekend at the ADM plant in Kershaw, South Carolina in 2013.
L&C SW1200 94 was built for the Pennsylvania Railroad in 1957 as PRR 7917, then became a Penn Central unit (PC 9017) after the merger with New York Central and, of course, Conrail (CR 9336) after the government take over of that railroad. Conrail sold it to the L&C in 1996. It was sold by L&C in 2016 to Florida Central as their FCEN 94, but I do not believe it is on their property in 2024.
