The movie "Fugative" - Classic Trains Magazine

Filmed on the Great Smoky Mountains Railway in Dilllsboro,  North Carolina, the train wreck used "Illinois Southern" 1901, a U18B built as SCL 301 (GE 38848, 3/1973), later CSX 1901, and Norfolk & Western 536, a high nose GP30 (EMD 27369, 6/1962) painted to match 1901. Engine and traction motors were removed from 562, at least.  The engines remain in Dillsboro.

Pre-merger N&W had 44 GP30s, all high-nose. Another 10 low-nose GP30s were acquired in the merger with Nickel Plate.  Southern Railway had 112 high-nose GP30s.
