Terry Lovell	General	Southern #2641 was a GP30 returned to EMD in 1965 for rebuilding following wreck damage , Since GP30 production had ended and the GP35 production was under way, This unit emerged with a GP35 body.	2/22/2010 8:45:11 PM

Terry Lovell	General	NS retired it in Aug89, Not sure what date RJ Corman retired it for Display, Hope this helps.	2/22/2010 8:48:31 PM

Reed Reding	General	It was moved to Clarksville in the late 1990's (I believe in either 1997 or 1998). Before that it had been stripped for parts at the Guthrie, Ky shop. The caboose is ex-ICG.	2/23/2010 12:20:23 AM
