Found a couple of Ex-N&W units still working in South Carolina today...

[NW Mailing List]

They are GP9's. 667 was built 2-59 and 686 was built 3-59. They were still in 
service on the NS in 1990.   Jim Nichols

Photographs from Hampton & Branchville in Hampton, SC today showing two 
obviously Ex-N&W Hi-hood units which I “think” are GP9s?
 
 I’m trying to find out more about their NW careers and when they ended up in 
SC. When I find out more, I’ll add it to the captions on the website.
 
The 3rd unit is an Ex- Baltimore & Ohio / Ex- Chessie paint job.
 
Great town even if the weather was overcast.
 
Here are the shots.
