Yes I dd enjoy. Excellent photographs. Thanks.

Very nice pictures Mike....Yes, we (CP) seem to be leasing more and more of these units every year. Don't know exactly how cost effective they are, but, they do look nice!! Also not sure if you know this but we are also testing the new SD70Ace, haven't been in one yet, but looking forward to the day I go to work in one!

Yes I heard about it and there doing most of the testing out west in the rockies, which is more cost effective to try and see what the limits the unit have and how much tractive effort it can exert to start a train, if CP seems satisfied they may order some, also to be on the look out is 16 new SD70ACe's that Montana Rail Link ordered out of EMD in London Ontario and it will show up in mid to late 2005.

If CP orders ACe's instead of the GE's lets hope they come to the BNSF
