EXTERNAL: Preserved electrics (was: Bored with steam)

[NW Modeling List]

Rob:

Very interesting.  Looks like there’s about 65% of it left.  IRM is a stellar place; I guess I’ll have to get back up there soon.

Thank you!

Illinois Railway Museum has an ex – VGN, ex-New Haven, ex-Penn Central, ex-Conrail EL-C / EF-4 / E33 that they acquired from the Railroad Museum of New England a few years ago. Here’s a short video showing the motor’s current condition: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Lxn-0CfqpI

The video says it was VGN 132 but other sources say it was 131.
