G12 7707 in Sweden

GM G12 7707 in Norway similar to the New Zealand Da class, great sound turn up the volume.
This was flimed in Sweden in 1998. The loco was at that time owned by the Norwegian GM group. Today it is owned by the Swedish state rail museum in Gavle. The SJ group bought this loco in 1956 and called it T42 205. they kept this paint scheme for some 10 years and then re-painted it in brown with beigi stripes. In 1983 SJ group sold it to the GM group and the re-painted it back in the old demo paint scheme.

I stand corrected on the previous details that I wrote. Updated information care of Fredrikgaard.
Thanks for that.

Railroader62 i had a look at this vid and it's some fine work you did i know you said it almost looks like a Da class but it kind of looks like a MK I T Class used by the Victorian Railways in Australia too

I never though EMDs could possibly sound like anything other than boring...until I saw this vid.

Oh boy I've died and gone to G12 Heaven. Listen to that baby growl as the Engineer notches up. I love it. The NZ DA's had an idler wheel between the four driving axles to help distribute the weight over the light rails on some of the branch lines. Thank you thank you Railroader62 for the wonderful insight into Scandinavian railways.

It has the same engine as the Danish class MX isn't that right? But this one hasn't got an effective muffler:D
