ROCKY FORD CO March 11 1980 -- American Crystal Sugar Co. used F7A 64 as a switcher. According to Dons Depot, http://donsdepot.donrossgroup.net/index.htm, "564, F7A, was built by Electro-Motive in July 1949, #8358, as Denver & Rio Grande Western 564D, Class DE4(B-B)226. It was renumbered as 5644, Class DE4(B-B)226, in 1950 and rebuilt by Electro-Motive in 1957. It was reclassified Class B-B 60 in 1962 and retired on August 27, 1969. It was sold as American Crystal Sugar Co 64 in January 1970 and sold to Glen Monhart in 1980. It was painted as CMNR 564 and became WICT 901. It was repainted as Charleston & Western Carolina 901. Information seems to be lacking regarding the disposition." Note the "diesel fairy" on the fireman side and platform on engineer side. |
