D&H 6702 SW8 (GMD A112 11-24-50) has a long history beginning
with its assignment to yard service on the London Division where it worked
for decades. Eventually, after almost 50 years it was retired 4-16-90. It
was stored until being sold in 1992 to the Delaware & Hudson (owned by
CP) for use in Philadelphia, PA switching a small port facility accessed by
running rights gained by D&H during the Conrail era. It was tied up unservicable
2/99 as obsolete and then sold 6/99 to LTEX 900 who rebuilt it 3/01 with a
900hp engine and m.u. and sold 4/02 to WCI Steel 831, (formerly, Republic
Steel) Warren,OH.
