The only WC GP30 that meet the torch was the WC 713 after being sold to Larry's Truck & Electric. The 700 went to the Lake Superior Transportation Museum, the 703 to Colfax, WI, the 711 went onto Railway Service Contractors and is for sale, the 713 to LTE and scrapped, the 719 to Dakota Southern Railway but is being used for parts, the 2251 went to National Railway Equipment and is for sale, the 2252 went to Northern Illinois & Wisconsin Railway and is being used on the Blacklands Railway, and last but not least, the 2253 was sold to Western Rail Inc and in turn sold to an oil Company in Canada. Hope this helps for the those who don't know.

That still leaves 11 units unaccounted for - 704, 706, 707, 709-710, 712, 715-717, 718 and 721. I remember some of them being cut up in N. Fond du Lac. The 2251-2253 were ex-C&NW and FRV units.
