Delaware and Hudson

D&H 6702 SW8 (GMD A112 11/24/1950) has a long history beginning with its assignment to yard service on the London Division where it worked for decades. Eventually, after almost 50 years it was retired 4/16/1990. It was stored until being
sold in 1992 to the Delaware & Hudson (owned by CP) for use in Philadelphia, PA switching a small port facility accessed
by running rights gained by D&H during the Conrail era. It was tied up unservicable 2/1999 as obsolete and then sold
6/1999 to LTEX 900 who rebuilt it 3/2001 with a 900 hp engine and m.u. then leased 4/2002 to WCI Steel 831.
