Wow! Talk about a blast from the past. This unit was not previously
represented on the Remaining In-Use Equipment roster. Three previously
undocumented Q units surfacing in one week! I'll add this to the roster when
ASAP. Thanks for passing it along. Also, in addition to 9274, 9271 was also
produced by P2K in HO.

This off the LocoNotes group about a still working ex-Q SW1200. BTW, for the
modelers out there, this unit (CB&Q 9274) was produced by Proto 2000 in HO
scale.
