I have heard that several years ago NS repainted an ex Southern GP59 green an lettered it for Southern, dedicating it to SOU's employees. I am not sure. I never saw it, but I have seen an HO scale model (which means absolutely nothing about reality). That is just a lead you might want to explore.

Thanks, I wasn't sure. It has been a while since I have heard of it.

The unit's road number is 4610, it's very pretty (but it's not original), we havent seen it in a while though....(since 1994, to be exact)
