#EMD GP9

[collinthenychudson]

Much of the diesels i've denn building in Minecraft are six-axle units, so here's a four-axle diesel, and EMD GP9 in the Southern Pacific Black Widow scheme, that I have finish building recently. This was made using CraftyFoxe's Pioneer PREX GP20 tutorial so credits to him.

Yard Engine

Here we see the yard engine working a seldom used spur that leads from the main, through a cut, to downtown Bloomington, Indiana. The EMD GP9 was built in February of 1955.

This is along Illinois Central's line between Effingham, Illinois, and Indianapolis. It was the Illinois Central Gulf at the time after a merger with the Gulf, Mobile & Ohio four years earlier.

Three images by Richard Koenig; taken October 28th 1976.

Perhaps preserve a few of the more important ones like the F40PH, F7, GP9 etc mainly the iconic and widespread EMDs but the GEVOs can go

While there is a certain romance to steam locomotives, I see no reason to preserve the polluting, ugly, inefficient monsters we call diesel locomotives, electrified trains or hell even battery electrific and hydrogen are all better ways to power a train than diesel

Just a bit ago, I released a post showing all my OCs from the New York Central System. And like with those OCs, in that past, I made several posts showing my OCs from the Pennsylvania Railroad. So this post will show all the PRR OCs together in one post.

Now these engines are of Norfolk Southern’s Pennsylvania Railroad heritage fleet…

and they can only be found on railroad territories that were once under the jurisdiction and ownership of the Pennsylvania Railroad. And these OC engines from “The Standard Railroad of the World” are…
