Title:  FORMER MISSOURI PACIFIC GP38-2'S 2203&2189 BACK IN PROVO OCTOBER 30,2010.
Description:  Former MP GP38-2's 2203 and 2189 have found their way back to Provo. GP38's have found a special place in my heart as they've become GP7's and GP9's of our time,As both were built by GM's Electro Motive Division in 1980 for Missouri Pacific a comforting thought to know these classic engines were once dressed in blue.
