Louis-

Hol - Can you confirm the history of 9138? Was it constructed by EMD for the CB&Q or FW&D?  Amazing that the 76-year-old locomotive is still putting in a day's work at a cement mill. Do you think the Colorado Railroad Museum in Golden would be interested in adding the SW1 to their collection? One of these days, sooner or later, 9138 will fail and end-up being scrapped. This elderly CB&Q switcher is certainly worthy of preservation. Best Regards - Louis
