That is an RS-32, former SP unit. Currently it resides in Portola CA. Sure looks good here. Simplot got their money's worth out of her.

Here is a link to what she looks like currently.

Yes, it is a sad looking unit now. The good news is, it runs. All that is really needed is a new set of drivers, the old ones were condemned for thin flanges. We have the traction motors, all that is really needed is a new set of wheels. Some elbow grease to remove the rust and new paint and wa la.
