Curious though, what is a CF7 and GP7U
Do you have any pictures?
I might try one if I know what it looks like.

If i'm not mistaken, a CF7 is one of Santa Fe's creations. Its an older locomotive, F7 or F9 repowered and fitted with what looked like a late model EMD Spartan cab. The loco was pretty much stripped and rebuilt by SF from the ground up.

Many of them weren't even re-powered. Chop off the nose, add a low nose fabrication, and use a scrap gp7 hood.... done.

That is correct. It was put out by the Cleburne Texas shops, hence the CF designation.

Several of them are on the A Line now as Florida Central Units, along with N&W GP9 #669 (in the photo as #60)

Not sure if its all factual, but it seems to be a good site for infor on these units.
If i'm not mistaken, the Chatooga & Chickamauga, an NS leased shortline just over the hill from me, has one. As a matter of fact, I got a picture!

I'm so up for it. I've been planning on making this bad boy...
...to run the restaurant train out of Lenoir on my route.
But that's not gonna happen any time soon. Got SO much to do first. So if someone does make one, I will be their second biggest fan after you!
