ICE SD40-2 6214 in River Yard
Title:  ICE SD40-2 6214 in River Yard
Description:  ICE SD40-2 6214 in CP paint sits in River Yard. This unit started life in 1974 as CP 5682, and after that was sold to NREX, becoming their 5682. NREX then renumbered this unit as 6214, which was then finally sold to Iowa Chicago and Eastern aka ICE. This is the first ICE engine I've ever photographed. Also, CP SD40-2 5671 was trailing, but it was unfortunately blocked by a cut of cars
