Was getting my daily does of railpictures.net yesterday and there was a picture of both units laying over with a passenger consist within the past week or 2. Caption also noted they had been used in freight service. Joshua > Was wondering if Ohio Central uses F7As 1000 > and 1001? > Michael Huhn > Volenteer at the Pennsylvania Trolley Museum |

Since the arrival of the FP9's (6307 & 6313) the F7's have been sitting. I can't think of the last time they were used for freight or passenger. Andy chevy3@digitalexp.com |

I'm an (expletive delted) idiot. Another look at the picture reveals a date of August 2002. I apologize. Joshua OH Central Picture |

Did they sell? Does OHCR still have them for sale? |

Speaking of "in use" Ohio Central questions, what about RS-3 1077? Does it ever run? gmckee@insightbb.com |

That would have to be found out by contacting the main office and they would let you know who to talk to for the information. As for the 1077, I can't remember the last time it was out, it did have the prime mover replaced and had been in use after that. As far as I would know I think the 1077 is stored serviceable just not being used right now. I will do some checking and try to post more on that soon. chevy3@digitalexp.com |
