I couldn't post this eariler due the the server/forum problems, but a old CP Alco C420 (I beleive) with a IBEW (or something like that) reporting mark was moved from the BS to Ohio St, to Frontier yard and then west to Cleveland.

Anyone know what that was all about? Sorry for the somewhat vauge info, I didn't know when the forum was coming back and tossed out the note I made about it.

I don't think CP had C420s. Maybe from an other railroad or if CP a different model? Maybe an RS-18?

12/17/03 - The BSOR has sold ex Q&G #4241 to the Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad. Crews from the CVSR have prepared the locomotive for shipping. The unit will be shipped early in 2004. It is hoped that the unit can be restored to operating condition and we look forward to seeing the unit return to service.

It was a C424. It was going to the CVSR.
