Title:  CRIP 4506 going for one last spin around the shops area for Diesel Days 2022
Description:  This locomotive was used by the Chicago and Northwestern, and languished in the ex-C&NW yard at Janesville, WI for many years after the UP takeover. It arrived at IRM in 2008 still as CNW 4160 and was quickly repaired to operating condition; and restored to its Rock Island appearance a few years later.
