SCXY 1363
Title:  SCXY 1363
Description:  Here's a nice close up shot of SCXY GP9 #1363 sitting silently in Rush City with GP8 #1352. What I wouldn't give to see the SCXY getting a GP30 and painting it up in this scheme, oh well, gotta love the old first generation diesels while you can

SCXY 1363
Title:  SCXY 1363
Description:  It's nice to see older generation Geeps still in active service even if they aren't on Class One RRs. GP9 #1363 is a former GN Geep, it went into BN in the 1970 merger, but retired by BN, ILSX picked it up and leased it to the SCXY, when it first came to the SCXY, it's classifcation lights weren't capped and it was in a ugly green and yellow scheme. In 2009, when the Snake River Bridge was closed due to slight rebuild, the GP9 went for a nice repaint. GP8 #1352 started out as a IC GP7 and was rebuilt to it's current look by the IC. After it was retired, ILSX picked it up and became the new lease unit for the SCXY. It too got the NP Tribute Scheme. Both units look very sharp and amazing in this scheme
