ICG GP7 65
Title:  ICG GP7 65
Description:  In the mid 1970s the ICG bought a number of GP7s from the Reading with the intention to rebuild them as part of their Paducah program. Several were given temporary numbers by dropping the first digit and put on the road before they were rebuilt. This is ICG 65, former Reading passenger geep 665; it would become ICG 7734 in 1977.
