HESR 3037 is on its way to MEI in St. Louis and shall never return.This is an ex Gulf & Ohio® and originally CN engine! Supposedly HESR GP40-2LW #3036 (ex CMGN 9712) will be leaving too when the "Orange" replacement comes! Soon, just the three RA GP38-2s (3965/3866/3867) and HESR 2028 (ex CMGN 2014) will be the only ones that aren't "Orange" on HESR!!!!

Southbound manifest just stopped holding the main at New Haven waiting on a northbound to take siding.
I haven't lost my mind, it's on tape backup here somewhere...
