Minnesota Commercial retires “Crocodile GE,” adding more power

Sad day mate, Hope her parts carry on.

The old units on MC are interesting, but I think they may have had long nose units more conventionally known as crocodiles. I do not know the roster well enough to say.

Maybe preserve her in a museum …?

Yes, Here’s hoping she is preserved in a museum. GE should surely have a museum in Erie!

If I understand correctly, this unit was the first C36-7. If so, it should be preserved - perhaps at the museum at Erie (North East), PA.
