Do any of these c. 1950 units still exist either in service or preserved? Seem to have seen an awful lot of whiteline/scrappping pictures of them recently. Seems some were still on Guilford roster fairly recently.

Union Tank car in Marion Ohio, It's still number 1560. We did a complete rewire and conversion to 26 air as well as a new cab floor and type one control stand. With the money they put into it It's going to be around for a while. Still has the high hood.
