One of the low nose units sits with xPC 6515 U25C. Josh Holmes, a CRCyc reader, notes that the 7566 was sold sometime in the mid-1990's to New England Southern, which is located in Concord, NH. The unit was renumbered #566 in a weathered Conrail blue. The unit was used daily to switch local industries in the Concord and Bow, NH area. It also took the 2-3 times a week train down to the interchange with Guilford in Manchester, NH. Thomas Mitchell says that in early 2006 NES 566 (ex-CR 7566) was sold to a private operator in Lincoln, New Hampshire. New England Southern replaced NES 566 with an ex-Union Pacific GP-39-2 2370. Shortly after being sold, NES 566 was sold to the Black River and Western Railway in New Jersey. A varied history to be sure!
