100 was a GP7, built by Electro-Motive, February, 1953, #17827. It was originally Union Pacific 700. It was renumbered 100 in 1953. On August 8, 1978, it was retired, and it was sold to Bargains Galore in April, 1979. It was purchased by XTRA, who sold it to the LaSalle & Bureau Co (Ls&BC). It later went to the Texas-Northwestern as 100, and then to the Kiamichi RR as 701.

Any idea why this was in Texarkana? TXNW operated WAY up away from there, about 500 miles WNW actually.

Notes have been lost. My brother,who lived at the time in SW Arkansas would roam the Ark-La-Tex area. Also SE Ok. Could be in that area and not Texarkana proper.
