Tony Fernandez	General	This unit received a turbo-charger at EMD in May 1959, boosting its horsepower from 1750 hp to 2000 hp. Some publications refer to units so converted as a GP9u.	11/29/2007 1:51:43 AM

Ron Moraca	General	Wow!! What a fabulous photo, Greg!! It has a very stark kind of beauty to it.	3/14/2009 1:55:20 PM

Mark Evans	General	Medicine Bow is still worth a visit ...Saw a rerouted Amtrak CZ go thru there in 2009...The Depot is still 'intact' -museum- and the Virginian Hotel is a cool old place to eat drink, and hang out....The turbo-modified GP-9's were also nicknamed "Omaha Geeps" I find GP-9B's addicting...Fine Shot	12/30/2010 3:52:00 PM
