Ron Moraca General Well, Billy, she might be headed to the Morris-Knudsen facility in Boise, ID, to be rebuilt. I can't say this for sure, but when this picture was taken, this GP38 was a wreck. 10/26/2007 6:09:13 PM
David Harding General I agree with the above comment about the possibility of it going to M-K. Agreed this unit is a wreck for sure but I have seen pictures of units that have gone to M-K in far worse condition come out of their shop looking factory new though they wern't new to begin with. They are certainly miracle workers in Boise. 5/12/2011 1:28:25 PM
