CR SDP45 6670

was owned by VMT at the time this picture was taken in Roanoke, VA and stored in an unused portion of NS' Shaffers Crossing yard.

 

The unit was built while the EL was controlled by Dereco, an NW subsidiary, and thus constructed to their specs with dual control stands.

 

In late-2018, it was announced that the Youngstown Steel Heritage group was acquiring the unit. YSH has plans to eventually restore it to it's as-delivered EL scheme.

 

Built in 1969 as EL 3639 to CR 6670, returned to NW in 1984 as NW 6670, donated to VMT 1985.
