Album Info:The ICG rostered mostly EMD locomotives and had a rather standardized roster. However, There were some oddities.....SD24's in Southern paint, 2 SD28's, a GP7 in Frisco paint, some GP28's and at least 1 C636 with ICG lettering. Thanks for looking at this album!!

ICG 1101
Title:  ICG 1101
Description:  I found this C636 at Freeport, Ill in 1978. It was possibly the only time a C636 operated on the Iowa Division. It had died on the road just out of Rockford and was sent back to Chicago. This may have been the only C636 to get ICG lettering.....all the C636s were retired in 1979. These units were plagued by mechanical problems from the beginning. They were assigned to the Kentucky Division and kept close to the Paducah shops. They were on a short-term lease to the CP in 1970 & 1971.

Title:  ICG 3011
Description:  David Johnston slide. This GP40 was built in 1966 and was from the first order of IC GP40's.

The IC experienced many issues with the new GP40's including leaking fuel injectors, cracks in the center casting area and traction motor flashovers. All issues were resolved by EMD and the IC went purchased additional GP40's.
