And It Runs!
Built as Cincinnati Union Terminal 25, this switcher is one of six Lima-Hamilton 750-horsepower switchers delivered to CUT, the only examples of this model ever built. After a stint on the Cadillac & Lake City, the rare unit ended up at the Whitewater Valley Railroad, where it is seen in 1981. Thirty seven years later, the venerable end-cab still operates, the only one of about a half-dozen surviving Lima diesels that does.
