  • On November 17th, 1995, Canadian National would become privatized, ending 76 years of ownership under the Canadian Federal Government. Fast Forward to 2010, CN did a small celebration of its privatization with 8 locomotives wearing a commemorative logo. Today, we look into them.

    When I was younger, I always wanted to see one of the 15th anniversary dash 8s. Since I’m going to the iron range in a few weeks, I’m hoping I’ll be able to conquer that desire to see one. Great video!!

    7258 has been tied to a slug at CN MacMillan Yard in Toronto and will likely remain there for the rest of it's service life. Also, interestingly, 2124 only has the 15th anniversary logo on one side. Nice video!

    UPDATE: I went to the iron range about 2 weeks ago, and was able to catch CN 2112 (one of the 2 active 15th anniversary C40-8s) leading 8 different ore trains! Definitely awesome to conquer the desire I’ve had for almost 10 years.

    I actually saw 2115, but at the time I didn’t know it was out of service

    I live close a small line that sees CN that sees traffic on a daily basis and one day I was actually going to the doctor and caught a BCOL engine

    2124 is probably the most interesting of the bunch, since it had a unique logo painted on the sides during its career on the CNW.

  • @RailfanMichaelR.3103
    @RailfanMichaelR.3103 Місяць тому

    I’ve seen 2107, 2112 and 2128. They are interesting locomotives/paint especially on C40-8s. I will someday hopefully see 2124 and 7258, if I can get to those places where they are

    2124 lost its French side of the 15th Anniversary logo and I remember catching it here on the West Coast just before the Dash-8 retirement began. Glad to see it's a training engine now.

    Gonna be honest, seeing engines I only ever see in UP/BNSF liveries in CN colors took a bit to get used to. Love from New Mexico!

    Just saw the 2124 a few months ago, and it no longer has the 15th anniversary logo.

      You check both sides?

    • @RailfanMichaelR.3103
      @RailfanMichaelR.3103 Місяць тому

      It’s missing only one side, seeing pictures at Homewood, the side with the logo is not easily see able

    you should make a video on UP 1400 (the sdp35, not the GP40)
    it apparently had a modified Thunderbolt 1003 mounted on it's cab roof

      potentially try looking for a webcam nearby, in my town I almost never saw interesting things, found a webcam that I have open at all times and I catch special equipment almost twice a month.

    I live on a small branch line in Wisconsin and remember seeing one of them in 2012 or 2013. I think it was 2113 but I am not sure as I was 8 at the time.

  • @isaacsmith1874
    @isaacsmith1874 Місяць тому

    They definitely had more effort put into them than the 100th anniversary units, that's not saying much of anything.

    • @isaacsmith1874
      @isaacsmith1874 29 днів тому

      Hopefully at least one of the dash 8s will get preserved, it's great to know it has a chance of happening.
