Title: |
RRPX 563 |
Description: |
A former Santa Fe switcher rests in the Whippany yard of the Morristown & Erie Railway after arranging some of the railroad's streamlined rolling stock from the former Maine Eastern operation. Built by EMD in 1953 as an SW9, this unit was originally ATSF 2432. The Santa Fe would later rebuild this unit in 1974 at their shops in San Bernardino, CA, redesignating it as an SSB1200 and renumbering it 1232. Retired from the active roster in the mid 1980s, the locomotive went to serve on Amtrak, where it acquired its present road number. Number 563 has been under the ownership of Railroad Power Leasing since the mid 2000s, working freight on the Morristown & Erie as well as a few other New Jersey shortlines. The unit is currently classified as an SW1200 by RRPX and has been given a paint job very similar to some of the M&E's regular freight locomotives. |
