Last use of 578 and 563

[NW Mailing List]

I’m willing but I ain’t able, as the saying goes.  It’s way back in my archives – if I run across it I’ll be glad to share.

Would you be able/willing to share that photo?  I have never seen any pictures of diesels on that train, and I am working on modeling the Norton area.

Sincere thanks, 
Brent Greer

No.  These trains operated with diesels for several months; I have photos 
made at Norton of GP9 790 arriving on #5.

I know these pacifics were last used on the train to Norton #5, but I
would like to know when the last runs were, and the last use of the
engines in service.  Was train #5 discontinued at this time(1957-58)
causing these engines to be surplus?  Thanks, Greg Scholl
