BCR 4617, Fremont, NE
In 1992 the Chicago and North Western leased two BCR GE's to test in DP service, #'s 4617 & 4607. Here the 4617 and two other GE's are doubling over and preparing to depart Fremont with a 150 car coal train with the BRC4607 on the rear end.
I do not know if the RR was granted a waiver from using an ATC leader or if the BRC4617 was equipped with some temporary setup, but the train ran in this configuration to Boone, AFAIK. 5-8-1992
