EWG 8924 correct history and soon to be retired.
SD45, built 09/1971 as SCL 2024. Builder # 37715, frame # 5784-1 Became SBD 8924, CSXT 8924, VMV 8924, MRL 8924, IMRL 8924. Assigned MRL number 382 but never renumbered. SBD gray.
Correct. 8924 went from CSX to VMV, then to MRL.
8924 is in her last days of service before retirement. She is being traded for another ex SP tunnel motor:
