CPKC J42 with re-painted SD40 2 leader back in the winter of 2024 2-2-2024
Back in early February, I was doing an all day railfanning outing and I just happened to catch J42 with an SD40-2 leader. This came as a surprise. Had I had known about it a little more ahead of time, I would have probably chased it from St. Paul Yard to Humboldt yard. I settled for 2 shots at 2 different locations instead. Enjoy!

Well this is something you don't see everyday! After waiting patiently for the NTWDIL manifest to depart Northtown with a BN Green Sd40-2 survivor leading, I was in for one big surprise. As the train approached Coon Creek, it immediately went into emergency. As the conductor went back to inspect the train and the other units, he apparently found no serious issues as the train was able to get on...

I spent the majority of the winter trying to figure a way to make a 500 sub special video. I originally had plans to head out of town somewhere but life got in the way and would not let me. So figured I would do a grand tour around the Twin Cities. The tracks running between Minneapolis & St. Paul are controlled by the East & West Hump dispatchers in Fort Worth, TX. Starting on the St, Paul sid...

      Hey buddy, not sure if you were able to see 2816 while it was here a couple of weeks ago? If not, you will get your chance, it will be running again in the cities as it will be returning to Calgary. It’s scheduled to run from Davenport, IA to St. Paul on July 1st and then from St. Paul to Glenwood on July 3rd. Hope that information is helpful for you…

    1964 is one of my favorite sd40s to work on besides the MRL sd40s. Was in Glendive for months. The 1905 was sent east for maintenance after it sat in the laurel roundhouse for a month with mechanical issues. It began working the bottom of the west lead in laurel yard this morning.

    • @BadlandNP
      @BadlandNP 3 місяці тому

      And the 1964 is back in Glendive. It was gone for a week or so, now I know where it went. I did catch the 1905 and 54 as they were heading east through here, but missed it on the return trip west. I will definitely have to roll by the Laurel yard on my way to the Livingston/Helena Railfair weekend the 26th!

    The SD40-2 shooting the flames out the stack looks like it is paired with the slug following it. Those are usually used in yard or hump service. I bet the guys in Dilworth will be happy to get that set.

    I cannot tell if the smoke is grey or grey/blue. Given the sparks, I presume he is just burning off carbon buildup which is a normal situation especially if the locomotive is seeing high throttle for the first time in a while. The grey smoke would go along with that pretty well. If the smoke had a more blue tint, it would mean the engine is burning oil, indicative of a failed turbo (actually) or another failure allowing oil to burn in the engine. Sparks in the exhaust would not go along with that kind of failure.
