LN GP9 #545 - Louisville & Nashville
Title:  LN GP9 #545 - Louisville & Nashville
Description:  Crisp photo from an original negative by an unknown Chicago photographer. Built by EMD in February of 1957 for the Chicago & Eastern Illinois as their #238, it was later sold to Missouri Pacific as their #345. Later it was sold to L&N as their #545. It appears that the unit did not make it to the SCL roster. The date and location are approximate "guess-timations".

LN GP9 #545 - Louisville & Nashville
Title:  LN GP9 #545 - Louisville & Nashville
Description:  This EMD GP9 locomotive turns out to be quite a boomer as it bounced from one railroad roster to another during its service. Originally built by EMD in February of 1957 as Chicago & Eastern Illinois #238, it became MP #345, TP #345 before landing on the Louisville & Nashville roster as their #545. It didn't stop there as it eventually became SCL #2413. No photographer, date or location was listed for this b&w slide. However, with C&EI boxcars in the background, it is most likely Evansville where the C&EI interchanged with the L&N. The date is approximate and set before its renumbering as a SCL member in 1971.
