WVRR 9339 |
| Description: |
The 9339 is an Alco S1 built 1/48 as Proctor & Gamble 9. When it was donated to the museum by P&G, one of the conditions of the donation was that it not display the P&G name or logo. Since the Whitewater Valley's trackage is a former NYC branch, it made sense to paint the loco this way, even though it was never a NYC unit. |

Built as a DS4-4-1000 in 12/49, she was used in a test program to develop the 600-series engine into a dual-fuel power plant (burning either diesel or natural gas). The unit was used just as a means to transport the test engine. The dual fuel 600-series engine would have been used in stationary applications only - it was never intended for railroad use. Upon sale to P&BR, the unit was repowered with a 606A engine. |

RPCX 4601 |
| Description: |
One of IRM's newer acquisitions is this GE E33. She's ex-CR/PC 4601, exx-NH 301, exxx-N&W 231, nee-VGN 131. I can see some of the New Haven paint bleeding through. Looks pretty rough! |
