Ever wonder what happened to the MBTA's "Grey Ghost". Well built by Electro-Motive in November 1952 as Pennsylvania Railroad 5761A, Class EP-22. It was renumbered 4261 in 1966 and became Penn Central 4261 in 1968. It went to Conrail as 4261, Class E8A, in April 1976, and then to Massachusetts Bay Transit Authority as 4261. It was sold to the Green Mountain Railroad as 4261 in 1987 but was not used and sat in storage in the North Walpole yard. Later sold to Central New York Division, National Railway Historical Society, where it was painted as Delaware Lackawanna & Western 807.
