One update. CSCD 3519 is PSAP 3519. It and PSAP 3518 were just released from Huron, SD(RCPE) and interchanged with the BNSF yesterday.

They’re transferring them to the NECR, which already has several. My guess is they’re just consolidating them to a handful of properties.

OH no, does this include HESR GP40-2LW #3036? Man that has been here since Central Michigan® got it in 1997! :cry: I like these units!!!! Are the ex RA GP38-2s staying? :?:

Here's a picture my friend Correy Fanson took with our equipment, Durand, July 2000 (Canon® 35mm S.L.R.): Image

GC 2116 has been reassigned to CA... CA GP7u's 2158 & 1720 are in the process of being replaced now. 2158 is still active but 1720 has been retired and this is likely the replacement for both

NCVA GP38-2 #3560 and GC GP38-2 #2139 arrived on NCVA property. A BAYL GP38-2 en route to Chesapeake and Albemarle, not sure of road #. CA possibly getting a GP38-2 from NCVA due to increased business.

Probably a replacement for 2158... Do you know if they'll be getting an engine from both BAYL & NCVA? or just one

Trust me, I definitely will, 75 got its batteries taken out for 2158, looking forward to 3557. Might want to put that on your new GP38-2s list haha
