Post by: Joe Land on February 18, 2012, 12:40:46 pm

Do any of you guys have documentation of which former Monon RS2s and NW2s were rebuilt into slugs?

Joe,

Attached is a Monon diesel roster which I updated about a year ago at Tom's request with the most current information I could find. It denotes by locomotive model which units were converted to slugs.

Wasn't L&N 554 carbody also a Monon locomotive? An F#A rebuilt with F9 diesel and generator after wreck damage?  I might have the Monon number somewhere but have no idea where to find it as my records are disorganized after moving last year.
