600s LEAVING ROSTER

Posted Monday, December 4, 2006
Joe Atkinson announced this morning on the IAIS list that all of the original GP38 600s - save 601 - will be leaving the roster shortly. That means you have about a month to get any remaining shots of 600, 602, 603, and 604 that you may need. 601 will be staying on to become the mother unit to the slug being built out of 466. In their place, IAIS will be acquiring two more of the ex-Reserve Mining SD38-2s. These will likely be LLPX 2803 and 2804, which are coming from Texas and will probably eventually take their places in the 15x roster series. - NDH
