Showing off a fresh Helm maroon dip job after wearing UP yellow since rebuilding. This diesel was originally built as a GP40 and delivered to Illinois Central as 3012 in February 1966, becoming ICG 3012 after the IC-GM&O merger. After retirement this diesel joined UP as GP40 852, retired then sold to Helm and returned as GP38-2 2529 in UP yellow. After UP purged all leased power from their roster this diesel was renumbered HLCX 1029 and recently given a shiny new paint job. Although a GP38-2 this diesel retained the three fans of a GP40. |
