714th or 765th TRSB Korea - Kinney

Daniel Delbert Kinney Sr., from Gold Creek, Montana (born june 17 1928), Deer Lodge or ,Butte Montana.

 USA 2017 became KNR 2012 and USA 2033 became KNR 2003. (When the Army turned over some of its SW8s to the Korean National Railroad, the KNR renumbered them in the 2000 series, which causes some confusion since the KNR didn't keep the 2000-series numbers the Army had been using.)
The only SW8 left in Korea is ex-USA 2011, which became KNR 2001. When I last saw it three years ago it was on display by the main gate of the Pusan shops, and an employee said there are plans to put it on display somewhere in the city as an object of Korean national history, as it is the oldest diesel in the country
