When did NS phase out SW1200's
Posted by Anonymous on Tuesday, September 16, 2003 5:07 PM
I would like to model an SW1200 in NS livery but cant find any information or photos about them. They were still on the 1988 roster, but had all gone by 1995.

does anyone know when they disappeared and where they went.

Thanks,

Jon

Not sure about the SW1200's but NS got rid of the SW1500's in about '91. Wisconsin Central acquired some of the 1500's around that time.
