Chuck Zeiler	General	Thanks Jim. After I posted the photo, I looked up 2641 on The Unofficial EMD Home Page. It is listed as a GP30 (c/n 28596) and GP35 (c/n 31215). I gave it c/n 31215 because the Home Page shows it also as NS 2641 and RJCR 3501. I will defer to your judgement as to which construction number to use. It must have been wrecked pretty badly to get two numbers by the builder. Or it was just a replacement.	6/17/2012 9:22:12 PM
