PRR - aside from certain vents and the tunnel motor thing, the GP15 is just a less powerful GP38 (oversimplification) that CSS runs. I hate to see 'em go, but I'm not to worried about the "no-turbo show" in NW Indiana. PS, Chi Hts isn't too far from Whiting, and UP runs GP15-1's there on the CHTT belt line (chicago heights has it's own belt line).

Note UP's 15-series units are MoPac or CNW derived.
