Milwaukee Road 190
Built in March 1966 by the Electro Motive Division of General Motors, The Milwaukee Road's 3000 horsepower GP40, 190, was in charge of the hottest trains on the massive system. In the late sixties, the 190 was renumbered to MILW 2010, where it would remain until getting SOO markings in 1986. On May 14, 2012, still working for the CP/SOO in a diminished capacity, the SOO 2010 works the G64 "Watertown Patrol" and showing it's neglect by the owner. The original number that EMD applied to the locomotive in La Grange IL. is more visible than it's re-numbering. Last year, after being deemed no longer needed by the locomotives third owner, the Canadian Pacific, the once proud steed was reduced to scrap iron and recycled.
Below is a link to a piece of this locomotive.
