CP AC4400CW 9543 |
| Description: |
This was one of the steerable trucks under Canadian Pacific AC4400CW 9543 without traction motors, and without a center axle. The locomotive had been sent to the Wabtec-GE plant in Fort Worth to be modernized into an AC4400CWM, but it just had its traction motors removed by CP to repair other locomotives. The railroad harvested the motors from at least a dozen units and trucked the motor-axle combos back to Canada. |

CP and NS Units |
| Description: |
Eleven old General Electric locomotives were parked on the BNSF-Wabtec interchange just north of Wabtec’s Fort Worth Plant, on their way to being remanufactured. These were Canadian Pacific 9597, 9598, 9588 and 9647; Norfolk Southern 9191, 9224 and 9212; and CP 8542, 9644, 9657 and 9664. The CP units were AC4400CW’s and are going to be rebuilt into AC4400CWM’s while the NS units were C44-9W’s and are to become AC44C6M models. The Wabtec plant was closed for the holidays, which explains the build-up of locomotives on the interchange. |
