    SAR SD40-2f

    Actually, it is as the designation states. It is an SD40-2F -full cowl body. It was built for our colder climate up here. These were built for CP long after they halted passenger service, so there is no steam gennie in them. Here is some more info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GMD_SD40-2F

    SAR SD40-2f

    Its a pretty unique prototype, only 25 were made, all for cp. They were produced in brass, but thats a little rich for my wallet!

    For the CP fans out there.....

    My neighbour works in the paint shop at Ogden shops, not far from where those shots were taken. He says that the red paint that cp uses is extrodinarily expensive, that is why they are so slow repainting their older AC4400's!
