The Mount Hood Railroad (MH)
According to Wikipedia, The Mount Hood Railroad (reporting mark MH) is a heritage and shortline freight railroad located in Hood River, Oregon, 60 miles east of Portland, Oregon, United States.
MH 88
According to good sources, including Strapac's fantastic SP Compendium series, MH 88 was built in September 1959 by EMD as a model GP9, builders number 5608-18, SP 5889, SP Class DF-616. In 1965 it was renumbered to SP 3725 SP Class EF418-9.
This locomotive was upgraded in January 1978 emerging as SP 3885 SP Class EF418R-5.
This locomotive was retired in December 1988 and sold to Chrome Crankshaft becoming MH 88 soon thereafter.
