Hopefully the former rig is still in decent shape to be a much needed spare.

Michael m, the 2001 engine replaced a 1988 E-One on 10/29/2004. The 2001 engine pictured was originally assigned to Engine 116 from 5/10/2001-6/4/2004.

I also love the changing of the guard pictures as well.
I wonder how old the engine was that the 2001 replaced? I wonder if the 2001 engine replaced one of the late 80’s E-one engines?

I always enjoy the changing of the guard pictures. I wonder if there are any of that old rig when it was new going thru the same thing?
