With the 1998 split of Conrail, Norfolk Southern acquired 58% of the former railroad conglomerateâs assets. With Conrail having bought 100 GP15-1s, 58 of these were transferred to NS ownership. They continued to be used in switching, local, and secondary service. NS retired the GP15-1s in 2007, but many of the reliable units survived and found further employment.
