This engine was built as Central of Georgia 201 in its blue/silver scheme [you can see a glimpse of the nose on RRPA look up CG 160], it was later repaint in the Southern colours with "CENTRAL OF GEORGIA" painted on the long hood (visible in photograph), then in the 1970s the "CENTRAL OF GEORGIA" was painted over and replaced with "SOUTHERN" near the back [looks like it was painted over by NS] and with the "SOUTHERN" was applied it was renumbered 197 and sub lettered "CofG" (you can see the old number 201 showing through the paint). It was retired by NS in 1989, it was the only SD7 on both NS and SOU rosters. |
