EMD demonstrator lays over at Harrisburg. Too little, too late to save the CONRAIL electrification that came down several years after this 1975 photo.

Both are 1975 & 1976 belived scraped... however there are conflicting reports.
For those who dont know, these are the 6000HP GM6C and 10000HP GM10B super-electrics that ASEA-EMD fielded in the mid to late 1970's
 
EMDGP30
This unit went back to La Grange, IL and served as a load-test unit for EMD. It was eventually scrapped in the mid-1980's.
