Sara Schieve General I have seen this paint style before on a picture that was captioned as saying it was from another USX subsidiary. If I come across it again I will share the link. 12/23/2014 2:28:08 AM

G Gerard General Wild guess: ex minnesota transfer 63. Sister 60 was sold to Relco in 1964. 10/23/2015 12:27:34 PM
Chuck Zeiler General Good guess perhaps. I looked up that info in my Diesel Locomotive Rosters book (the Railroad Magazine Series, 1973), which does confirm that Minnesota Transfer S1's 60-62 were sold to Relco and 64 sold to Koppers, unfortunately, it does not show disposition of 63. But this is a good clue, thanks. 10/24/2015 10:51:40 AM
