D&SNG 87 ton GE was tested for the past three days around the yard.She is BIG! The # 7 was purchased from algoma steel in canada last year.
The Big GE was a standard gauge conversion built in 1975.D&S diesel fleet colors are still Red,
gray and RG gold with black striping.She sports a new EMD bell and a New P-4 Nathan horn which sounds like a tunnel motor on the Narrow Gauge!
Very quiet running Unit!! Other 45 ton center cabs
also originally from Algoma await shopping.
