East Washington Railway
Title:  East Washington Railway
Description:  This 45 Ton diesel switcher was built by General Electric in December 1946 for the East Washington Railway which operated near our Nation's Capital serving the community of Seat Pleasant, Maryland, and the Benning Power Plant. In 1970 the locomotive was sold to Pinto Island Metal Company in Mobile, Alabama. Republic Locomotive Works rebuilt the switcher in July 1987 and it was sold to Cogentix Power Plant in Hopewell, Virginia. The locomotive operated there until the plant ceased burning coal in 2019. The Old Dominion Chapter, NRHS, acquired the locomotive and relocated it to Hallsboro, Virginia, where it was restored to its original appearance. Since the Chapter already owns RF&P 101, this locomotive became ODCX 2101. Seen on 28 September 2024 giving train rides during the Old Dominion Chapter Open House.
