KCS 2830
Title:  KCS 2830
Description:  More than meets the eye, built in September 1968 as Penn Centrail GP40 3150 then entered Conrail with the same number. After being released by Conrail this Geep joined KCS as 775 until being rebuilt into a GP40-3 and renumbered 4783. Another renumbering brought 2830 to this PC veteran but has yet to receive Retro Belle paint.
