    It would've been even more unbelievable, if one of the GP7s leading happened to have been one of the former UP GP7s that CNW rostered. 4104 and 4105 were originally UP 140 and 144 respectively. Ironically most of these GP7s, including 4107 here was one of many CNW units that made it into UP's roster in 1995. 84 out of 109 GP7s numbered 4100-4209 to be exact.

    Lost count of all the times that railroads have tried to throw Cat diesel engine blocks in locomotives......and fail miserably every time. Cat engines, plain and simple, couldn't stand up to the abuse of railroad life. An engineer friend of mine got one of the NS PR43C engines once, and there were literal engine parts laying on the walkways from being thrown out of the exhaust stack!

    Awesome catches Jack! The Appalachian & Ohio retired the SD50s and ex-BAR units, and the A&O once leased SD90MACs from CEFX. Currently, A&O uses leased GMTX GP38s and GP40s. The SD50s and ex-BAR units went to other Watco operations when Watco sold the A&O, and the SD90MACs were returned to the lessor. The CEFX units were 125, 130, 133, and 144. This was taken back when Watco owned the Appalachian and Ohio.

I think that's pretty rare considering the fact I don't think there was a lot of them left in the early years of CSX. 6675 is ex SAL 603, and it's one of SALs oldest GP40s.
