There were still a couple of GP60s unpatched at least a couple of months ago - 9721 & 9794.  Not sure if that's still the case, however.

Unpatched SP/SSW units

The LBE 48 (it runs from Ray yard to Durant, OK. and back interchanging with Kiamichi RR) local out of Dennison has a unpatched GP-40 SSW 7286 as a southbound leader. What's cool about this job is they also have a SP caboose on the rear of the job. It's a daylight job.

SP 3086, also a GP-40, is at Ft. Worth awaiting diposition, it will probably be getting sold soon.
