CRIP 4506 going for one last spin around the shops area for Diesel Days 2022 |
| Description: |
This locomotive was used by the Chicago and Northwestern, and languished in the ex-C&NW yard at Janesville, WI for many years after the UP takeover. It arrived at IRM in 2008 still as CNW 4160 and was quickly repaired to operating condition; and restored to its Rock Island appearance a few years later. |

CRIP 4507 |
| Description: |
WAUKOMIS OK Aug 4 1978 -- Rock Island GP7R 4507 leads a mixed freight south as it approaches the E0500 Road crossing on the Rocks north-south main line. EMD built the unit in September 1952 as GP7 1271 (s/n 17602). After the Rocks collapse the 4507 went to the Chicago and Northwestern as CNW 4161. It was retired by the Union Pacific on Oct 7 1996. It was sold to Helm financial and then sold to Hoosier Southern Railroad as HOS 406.

CRI&P GP7R 4508 |
| Description: |
CRI&P GP7R 4508 at the Rocket House about 47th Street, Chicago, Illinois on an unknown day in April 1975, photo by S. Downey, Chuck Zeiler collection. Built in July 1952 as CRI&P 1260 (c/n 16469) on EMD Order 5136, it was rebuilt sometime in early 1975 to GP7R 4508. By early 1975, the Rock Island could no longer pay its bills, and petitioned the backruptcy courts for reorganization and protection from creditors on March 17, 1975. Federal Judge Frank McGarr appointed as trustee William M. Gibbons, who promptly appointed John W. Ingram as president and CEO. One of Ingram's first actions was to announce a new paint scheme and image, and this may or may not be the first locomotive to wear that New Image paint. It later became C&NW 4162. |
