GMD Recollections - Small Order

May 17, 1990 was delivery day at CP Quebec St yard for TM 869 and SSW 9713.  Tex-Mex 870 was not seen on delivery until October 27, 1991.

Of the 294 standard cab GP60 locomotives produced, Texas Mexican Railway acquired two examples.  TM 869 and 870 later went to Helm Leasing as their 7700/7701.  Subsequently they operated for a while on Vermont Railway System as their 381 and 382.
