CIRR closed its ALCO era by adding a group of SW units and two slugs. These along with a former CofGA Geep formed the basis of the roster until it was sold to GWI in the 2000s

Bryan Smith	General	The slugs didn't work out on the CIRR and ended up being a short lived experiment. They sat for years unused until the Bayline got one and now usually operates it with a GP40-2.	12/6/2010 10:50:44 PM

Charles Burgess	General	Great photo!	12/7/2010 9:26:07 AM
