This unit was originally built in 8/1971 as a CN SD40, no.5203, it was later sold to KCS and rebuilt to -3 standards as KCS 6638. It was then sold to Grand Trunk Western and renumberd to 5955, later became part of CN when CN aquired GTW in the 1990's. First time I've ever seen one of these units, it was awesome to watch these two old EMD's slowly come into the yard. |
