  • Canadian Railway Observations (Cro)
    CANADIAN RAILWAY OBSERVATIONS Updated Version 04/15/07 _______________________________________________________ By William Baird MAY 2007 CANADIAN NATIONAL CN Locomotives Retired in March and April: IC SW14 1507 on March 20th, DMIR SD38-2 209, on March 26th. CN C44-9W 2540 on March 29th, WC GP40 3005 on April 3rd. DMIR SD40-3 418 on April 10th (Note: This is not an SD40T-3, as there were two ex-CSXT units included in this rebuild with the Tunnel Motors). CN SD50F 5439 was released from NRE-Dixmoor in March 2007. This unit has received a Tier II zero emissions compliant engine, and new yellow frame striping. Photo - Ken Lanovich http://csxchicago.gotdns.com:6003/CN_Trains/SmallPicsRoll57/0024025-R1-059-28.jpg In late March, CN GMD-1 1436 was placed in the storage lines at the Woodcrest shop. 1436 arrived on March 19th from Toronto, with fire damage. This unit joins CN GMD-1’s 1414 and 1443 which have been in storage at Woodcrest for almost two years. When 1414 and 1443 first arrived they were to have truck change outs. Both units have had their trucks removed, but have never been replaced. Over the last year they have had quite a few parts removed, so it is unlikely that these two will ever run again. CN GMD-1 1436 appears to have suffered a main generator fire. Safety conscious CN has modified CN SD70M-2 8020 at MacMillan Yard shop on 3- 27-2007 with new bright CN orange steps / grab irons on the rear of the raised walkway behind the cab.
