Clinchfield 800 ... EMD F7

Model Railroader Prototype information for the modeler

EMD’s Public Relations Department distributed cards measuring 7 1/2" by 3 1/4" to the public with information about locomotives produced by EMD for various railroads.

I have a small collection of these cards. Among them is a card with Clinchfield number 800, an F7 ABA.

The February edition of Trains (front cover) has Clinchfield F7A 800 recently restored by CSX shops. It looks new.

I scanned the EMD publicity card …

Mike … Thanks for commenting.

Wishful thinking … … I wish CSX would restore L&N 770, a rusty old E6 located at Kentucky Railway Museum. I doubt the museum could ever raise funding for such a project.

I have a photo card with #814 Clinchfield.
