According to th 1972 BN Annual (which also contains a Hol Wagner photo of the 
engine in BN paint), the locomotive was sold to Naporano Iron & Metal on April 
12, 1972. The photo caption says that it was the only E7 ever painted for BN.

  Hi All,

  According to online rosters, this unit was retired by the BN in April of 
1972.  Can anyone on the list provide Jeff more information about this unit and 
the results of the synthetic fuel application?

  Thanks!

    Hi,

    I have a question for you.  I need to find out as much as I can about CB&Q 
E7A number 9935B.

    This locomotive was the first diesel in the US ever run on synthetic diesel 
fuel from the Bureau of Mines plant at Louisiana, MO back in 1949.  I’d like to 
know what ever happened to it.  
    According to a roster I found online it was built by EMD in March, 1949 and 
would have been almost brand new when it was run on synthetic fuel in May of 
1949.  It made it to the BN era and was renumbered BN 9920.  That’s all I can 
find.

    Can you use your contacts to see what else is known about this locomotive?  
It was highly historic.

    Jeff
