Title:
MKT 401B
Description:
PARSONS KS April 1977 -- This unusual locomotive was front coupled but a shot was worth it. According to UtahRails.NET (http://utahrails.net/index.php) the unit was “rebuilt in December 1974 from F3A 66C (EMD 4+34, June 1947) by MKT at Parsons, Kansas, numbered MKT 399; renumbered to MKT 401B in April 1975 upon entering service. F3A 66C had been wrecked on 17 June 1974 at Caney, Okla … Rebuild included an EMD 2000 horsepower 16 cylinder 645E prime mover and upgraded electrical gear; cab windows were blanked out and a new enlarged nose door installed, making the unit into a cabless booster."
