Over thirty years old, CP SD40 #5540 is in her last summer on the CPR. A flood of AC4400's and SD90/43MAC & SD90MAC's has freed up enough Soo SD60's and CP SD40-2's that the Toronto pool, and CP, can let go of these faithful units. Even on CP, where trouble-prone models can live long lives, age can kill off the mighty SD40 line. |
