Re: (erielack) EL GP-7 1405



 


Hmmm.  My notes are somewhat different and beg to be corrected if  wrong:
 
1402 wrecked 08-11-58 in head-one collision with train #53 at Sloatsburg  
(FRA report does not list engine for Train #53.)  Wrecked again at Newark,  NJ on 
Newark Branch in collision with Train #1302 on 01-08-63.   Scrapped.
 
1407 wrecked at Dover, NJ on 11-01-66. Repaired at Hornell Shop.  Unit  #902 
destroyed in that wreck.  1407 went on to become Conrail #5927,  rebuilt in 
GP-8 program at Paducah on 12-23-76 and was assigned #5725,  renumbered #5705.
 
Any additions or corrections welcomed.
