| Remarks & Notes |
| BISON OK Aug 15 1983 — Rock Island Trustee GP7 1504 leads a hospital train of freight cars at rest on a siding. Note the jointed rail. The 1504 was built in May 1952 (s/n 16343) for Pittsburgh and Lake Erie as PLE 5716 and was renumbered PLE 1520. It was acquired by the Monongahela Railroad as MGA 1504. It was leased to the North Central Texas as NCTR 1504. After its return to the Monongahela it was leased to the Rock Island trustee as CRIP 1504 where it was used to clean up Rock Island property after the line's shutdown. It was wrecked and scrapped in late 1985. This unique paint scheme was said to be applied at the El Reno OK paint shop by the trustee's crew. (Roster information from thedieselshop.) my photo.
