Unusual visitor
Title:  Unusual visitor
Description:  I was over at OReillys in Gentry getting a headlight, when I saw the dodger power roll through town, then go back up to McKee Foods-thats Little Debbie-to switch the plant. I got done at OReilly, and went up to see what was going on, and discovered this unit, one whose rebuild into a GP 22ECO was financed by Louisiana for service there. This is only the second of these I have seen here, the other on a lite power move last year. So it was quite a surprise. Im sure the crew is appreciating the flared long hood going forward!!
