CN Locomotive Sales Event-Spring 2006

CN is offering 41 locomotives (or slugs) for sale with units from BCOL, CN, DMIR & WC. ALCo/MLW, EMD & GE units are included. CN offered this sale last year with no sales made. http://www.cn.ca/about/surplus_assets/s ... ia06.shtml

I'll take TWO, eh??

If you have a front field, it might make a nice lawn ornament!!

At least last year they included more information, including short lists of faults. This year we're advised to inspect the units. The BCOL equipment is in Prince George, BC Canada. I know this from other boards. I'm not sure where the other stuff is. Try to think in terms of model railroading in 1:1 scale with excellent detail. Or maybe something on the list deserves preserving.

If only I had the money... oh the "toys" I would buy...

The CN, DMIR & WC units are in Homewood (Chicago ), Illinois. The DMIR NW-2 (http:// www.missabe.com/nw2.html) is a sweet little unit. There are 23 WC SD-45s and 3 CN SD-40s to choose from.
