This is a very rare photo of an almost unknown G.E. U-9B diesel-electric locomotive of the Companhia Paulista, # 7746, here seen at the Jundiaí station in March 1973. Ten units of this 900 HP machine were delivered to the former Companhia Paulista in the late fifties. Another photo of this machine can be seen with the FEPASA first "emergency" livery, that is, this same livery but without the legendary CP inscriptions. Photo by Ivanir Barbosa; this copy is courtesy of Luís Carlos Bellotto, who kindly sent a copy to the E.F. Brasil, an electronic list for discussion about the Brazilian railroads.
