MEC E7A #706 - Maine Central |
| Description: |
Maine Central #706 built by EMD in June of 1946 (bldr #3367) sits waiting at the North Station in Boston. Next to it is Boston & Maine #1564 with BM #1567 in the far distance next to the building. Interesting sidenote - MEC #705-711 had no dynamic brakes or steam generators and MEC #705-708 were a canceled Rock Island order, They were delivered to MEC still in Rock Island paint. MEC #705-709 were sold to the Kansas City Southern with #706 renumbered to KCS #7 on 10/17/63. Eventually KCS traded #7 to EMD on 9/2/68 and sit was crapped. unknown photographer. |
