GP16 Frame Numbers Checked

GP16 FRAME NUMBER VERIFICATION PAGE

Back in 1988 I typed up a roster including Serial numbers and frame numbers. Most likely the renumbering into the 1700 and 1800’s by CSX in 1987 prompted me to undertake this project. I was able to document the frame numbers of 74 of the 161 rebuilt units, and never found any discrepancies with frame numbers. So the list below is just simply a listing of frame numbers checked while I was out track side.

CSX 1745 Frame #7533-? I could not read the – number. Checked 7/15/1990 Baldwin Fla. According to the roster it should be 7533-4 but I can’t confirm.
CSX 1746 Frame # 5099-10 checked 9/22/1990 Jacksonville Fla.
CSX 1747 Frame # 6446-7 checked 7/15/1990 at Baldwin Fla. Checked left side frame on 1/01/1991 at Baldwin Fla.
CSX 1750 Frame # 5125-5 checked 11/03/1990 right side frame Baldwin Fla. There was also a second number in the right side frame. It was 4621, and later I would find out that this unit, SCL 4704, was for a short time numbered 4621. The move to the 4700’s was to keep units with 16-645BC engines and regular (non-alignment) couplers in the 4700’s while units in the 4600’s used the C-engine and alignment control couplers. Interesting as no other GP16 had its number engraved in the frame. I’m not sure why the 4621 was engraved in the frame.
