Guessing the 3513 is the ex NS 5564 / NS 4109 / N&W 4109 and 3514 is ex NS 5566 / NS 4156 / N&W 4156. Both were rebuilt from high hood GP38ACs.

All LocoNotes says for this one currently is that it is ex-HLCX.

I would like to edit the Wiki page but before I do I would appreciate confirmation. HESR 3036 is not a GP40-2LW but a GP40-2W. It was in the last batch ordered by CN that did not have the tall I-Beam like the previous orders. The L designated the taller I Beam. The purpose for this was to fit a larger fuel tank under the frame.

Anyway, can someone please confirm 3036 should be a GP40-2W.
HESR 3036 GP40-2LW 1976 CMGN Black Ex-HESR 9712/CMGN 9712/CN 9654.
