Nice shot. All squeaky clean. Is that a slug back there too?
|
Correct it is a slug back there.
|
Great to see that the SD40-2 is still popular among class 1 railroads such as Norfolk Southern.
|
Re the sound unit, once the crews get used to those low headlights they'll probably prefer them.
|
Those number boards are look'in real sharp, with the white numbers against the black background.
|
I noticed this picture was taken in 2013. Are these engine still being used regularly in mainline service, and what about the C40-8's? Are those units going to be saved at all?
|
Christian the SD40-2 are all in service. Now the C40-8 are retired and sent off to scrap.
|
What about the C40-8 rebuild program? Was that a big failure?
|
From what I know the C40-8 program never took off on a good note, that's probably why their only 3 or 4 of the Dash 8.5 running around
