[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by tormadel Also, is it a big price difference between an unmodified GP9 and say a paducah built GP10? I've seen GP38-3's, did anyone try fooling with the new traction technology with a GP9 rebuild? or would it even help? heh. Always new spins on old reliable tech. [/quote] Most GP10s were remanufactured from GP7s and GP9s in the early 70s so they are getting pretty long in the tooth. There is not much of a price difference these days, but then again there are very few unmodified GP9s left. Almost all still running have at least been rewired and had their original controls and braking systems updated and been low nosed. Given the age and condition of the GP9s most folks wisely have decided not to reconfigure GP9s with traction control. There have been some remanufacturing efforts such as the IC GP11s that added Dash 2 electronics to GP9s... If you don't already own it kalmbachs 4th Edition of the Shortline Guide has a lot about the various rebuilding programs... LC
