After Derby Dinner
the My Old Kentucky Dinner Train has ran from it's Bardstown, KY base since it's inception with a pair of former SR FP7A's except when they've needed maintenance.
RJC FP7A 1940 was built in 1950 as SOU 3497 to SOU 6141 to CNOTP 6141 to RJC 1940.
Both FP7A's were removed from service a few months after this photo & faced an uncertain future for a time. Eventually, it was decided to permanently withdraw them from service. They were placed on display next to the depot they ran from in mid-2025.
