Extra 8136 with Multimark on cab and number on carbody. Windsor 7/6/1976 Paul McGrane Collection

4015 was officially a model FA-1 1500 hp A unit which along with its B unit cabless version were known by "covered wagons" because access to their engine rooms was covered, thus weather protected, something appreciated by engine crews. One of twenty MLW A units (20 B units) and 8 Alco A units (4 B units), all were later upgraded to 1600 hp. MLW #77310 8/1950 Most were traded in to MLW on an order for 51 Century C-424 2400 hp road switchers numbered in 4200 series.

Old diesel, new small Multimark paint scheme. This is the second use of the number 4016. The first one was an FA1 MLW 77311 8/11/1950. It was wrecked August 8, 1957 at Attean, Maine when running as 908 hit 951 engine 8460 due to a dispatcher error. It was rebuilt 11/21/1957 by MLW as 8824 an RS-10s with short hood forward. Later, RS-10 8557 had an electrical fire January 28,1966 near Thamesville Mile 46 Windsor Sub. and its components were used by Angus to be installed in the carbody of 4014 (which was repurchased by CP including other parts) part of a trade-in program to MLW for C-424 4249. Outshopped March 14, 1966. The new paint job didn't last long. It was retired 9/15/1977.
