Does anybody have photos of either of these GP7's waiting at Communipaw after retrieval from Newark Bay, and prior to shipment back to EMD for total rebuild? I have seen one of 1532 suspended by a Merritt Chapman crane , just out of the water, and another color slide of the two locomotives sitting side by side at the C-paw roundhouse.
Please PM me if you have images to share.

There is a poor photo of the two wrecked units in the February 1960 Trains magazine. The photo is evidently by the author Don Wood. See page 40. Ed in Kentucky
