Rock Island in Cherry Red |
Description: |
Rock Island received 20 GP40s from EMD in 1970 with the financial help of UP, which were numbered in the 4700 series in anticipation of a me|ger with the bigger road that never ocurred. They ended up going to the UP after the Rock's 1980 shutdown, 4705 becoming UP 636. It has since become MNA 4014. |

CRIP 4710 |
Description: |
Route Rock, too bad nobody did. Here is a reason why. Rock Island GP40 4710 only received a partial repaint in this photo. Not so good for the company image. Apparentlly, It wasn derailed in Oklahoma by kids who opened a switch in 1978. They only painted what they fixed. No date, location or photographer name given on this slide. Elena M Durant collection. |
