This book is an overview history of the General Motors Electro-Motive Division GP7 and GP9 model diesel locomotives on the Chesapeake & Ohio.

These locomotives were the backbone of C&O's first diesel fleet and were the main replacements for its freight-service steam power.

Many were later used by B&O after its affiliation, and some survived into late Chessie System and early CSX eras.

All were gone by the mid-1980s.

They were the quintessential C&O freight diesel of the 1950s and 1960s.

This book covers their history and presents a color album showing them at work across the system.

Softbound, 8.5”x11”, 64 pages, 100+ photos (72 color, 32 b&w), maps, drawings.
