It's been a while since I had anything to post. I recently won an auction with a Mantua CN GP20 with the road number of 6536 from the factory. I know this number was put on CN F7As by Tyco but in 2014 I found and won a NYC GP20 with the 6536 number too and in original untampered-with contition.
These are not your fathers5628 GP20!
One resource mentions there were some Canadian only train sets and maybe this would be from one. I have looked at Tyco catalogs and don't see any pics of the 6536 other than the F7A. I posted the NYC GP in 2013-'14 here and it comes up on the Internet search.
It would be interesting to know if there are other original Tyco GP20s with this number. I know AHM put out FMs with this number and think it is an actual CN road number.
Here's the link to the NYC 6536 post.

Seems the original NYC had come across an NYC 6536 GP20 before I did. I wonder how rare they are?
Here's the link if anyone is interested.
