This roster was compiled from Tim Nelligan's two-page roster, with additions from New Haven Power by J. W. Swanberg. This compiled roster was compared to the  Alco , Lima, and  Fairbanks-Morse  builder's lists found on this blog and the primary source  EMD Locomotive Reference Data . Those provided accurate builder's dates (actually the shipping dates that all builders use as the builder date) and order numbers. Bibliography Garver, Craig H.

Georgia Railroad Diesel Roster The Georgia Railroad controlled the Atlanta & West Point and the Western Railway of Alabama . The three railroads formed a through route from Augusta, Georgia, to Montgomery, Alabama, collectively known as the Georgia Group. The Georgia Railroad was controlled jointly between the Atlantic Coast Line and the Louisville & Nashville , which ACL also controlled.

Here are links to an ongoing work in progress. This is based on the condensed rosters issued by the railroad on July 1, 1983, right after the formation of Seaboard System on January 1, 1983, and another issued on August 1, 1984, which covers several classes that were renumbered. It will also cover the joint Seaboard System/Chessie System renumbering covered in the condensed roster issued November 1, 1986, just before the formation of CSX. Part 1. Seaboard System Locomotive Roster - July 1, 1983 . Link to pdf Part 2. Seaboard System Locomotive Roster - August 1, 1984. Link to pdf Seaboard System was formed when Seaboard Coast Line Industries, the parent company of Seaboard Coast Line Railroad , absorbed the Louisville & Nashville . SCL owned 70 per cent of the outstanding shares of the L&N at the time of the merger.  Seaboard System also controlled the Georgia Group, which consisted of the Georgia Railroad, the Atlanta & West Point , and the Western Railway of Alabama , all

 The Chicago & Eastern Illinois was acquired by the Missouri Pacific in May, 1967, after quietly buying C&EI stock since 1961. The Interstate Commerce Commission imposed the condition that the eastern portion of the railroad, the Evansville line, would be sold to the Louisville & Nashville, which took place in 1969. Once under Missouri Pacific control, a new MP-compatible numbering system was imposed, and the C&EI continued as a separate subsidiary until 1976. Chicago & Eastern Ilinois diesel locomotive roster

Illinois Central Diesel Locomotive Rosters Below are links to the following rosters: Illinois Central 1929-1953 - This includes the AGEIR box cab diesels, the electric units, and the tri-power units. IC has not yet renumbered the diesel switchers out of the original 9000-series to clear new GP9 deliveries.

Gulf Mobile & Ohio merged with Illinois Central on August 10, 1972, to form Illinois Central Gulf.  The Gulf Mobile & Ohio's corporate family dates to 1848. It was created by a merger between the Gulf Mobile & Northern and the Mobile & Ohio in 1940. The combined company acquired the Alton Railroad in 1947.  The combined system stretched 2000 miles from Kansas City to Chicago and St Louis, and south to Mobile, Alabama, and New Orleans.  Link to the Gulf Mobile & Ohio diesel roster (.pdf).

Alton Railroad diesel locomotive roster (.pdf) Corporate History Gulf Mobile & Ohio - GM&O acquires the Alton and merges the company into the GM&O. Alton Railroad - Baltimore & Ohio buys the Chicago & Alton in December 1930, and reorganizes it as the Alton Railroad on January 8, 1931. On January 24, 1931, the B&O filed papers with the Interstate Commerce Commission for control.  Bankruptcy - Alton enters bankruptcy on November 25, 1942 and the Baltimore & Ohio surrenders the company to the courts. Chicago & Alton Railroad - successor to the St Louis, Alton & Chicago Railroad, on October 10, 1862. Bankruptcy - Chicago & Alton enters bankruptcy on August 1, 1922. Harriman control - E.H. Harriman led a syndicate of over one hundred investors, including George Gould, Jacob Schiff, and James Stillman, to acquire the Chicago & Alton, which Harriman was convinced was mismanaged and undervalued. This syndicate acquired 97 percent of the capita

The Texas & Pacific was chartered in 1871 and came under the control of Jay Gould and the Missouri Pacific in 1881. It played center stage in a dramatic battle between Gould and C.P. Huntington as the T&P and Southern Pacific fought to control the southern transcontinental railroad route. Gould and Huntington reached a historic agreement in 1881 and the San Diego ambitions of the Texas & Pacific ended with trackage rights from Sierra Blanca, Texas, into El Paso, and traffic arrangements with the Southern Pacific. The Missouri Pacific leased the Texas & Pacific from 1881 to 1885 and continued with a cooperative agreement after that. In 1928 Missouri Pacific bought enough Texas & Pacific stock to have a controlling interest, but only acquired a seventy percent interest four decades later. For complicated reasons involving Missouri Pacific's own stock, Texas & Pacific remained a separate corporation until 1976. The Missouri Pacific general renumbering of Januar

The Atlantic & East Carolina ran 94 miles between Goldsboro, North Carolina, and the port of Morehead City. In 1854, the Atlantic & North Carolina Railroad was organized and completed the original line in 1858. In 1904 it was leased to the Norfolk & Southern Railroad but that company went into bankruptcy and defaulted on the lease payments in 1932. The Atlantic & North Carolina withdrew the lease in 1935 and began operating again as an independent company. It was leased once again in 1939 to the newly-formed Atlantic & East Carolina Railway Company, with company offices in Kinston, North Carolina. The A&EC became the shortest railroad in North America to operate mainline diesel power in 1946 and it became fully dieselized in 1951.  Southern Railway bought control of the A&EC in 1958. The Atlantic & North Carolina is still 70 per cent owned by the state of North Carolina, which merged the company into the North Carolina Railroad in 1989. Here is the link

The Nashville Chattanooga & St Louis was controlled by the Louisville & Nashville from 1880 until it was merged into the parent company in 1957. It began it's corporate existence in 1848. Here is the link to the Nashville Chattanooga & St Louis diesel roster (.pdf)
