CGW GP9m 120
Title:  CGW GP9m 120
Description:  Chicago Great Western Railway GP9m 120 and caboose 604 at Ingalton, Illinois on March 13, 1966, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Built as a GP7 in September 1951 (c/n 14719) on EMD Order 5102, this unit was rebuilt in January 1956 by EMD into a GP9M (see Comment below, thanks Dustin) , using major components from the trade-in, wrecked GP7, retaining the GP7's 1,500 horsepower and road number. It became C&NW 120 after the July 1968 merger, became C&NW 4337 after rebuilding at the C&NW's former CGW Oelwein (Iowa) shops during December 1974, receiving a lowered short hood, was sold in 1989 to the Livingston Rebuild Center (Livingston, Montana), and in 1993 became MRL 115.
