and another point of view on that, is that it hasnt been the D&H since 1991 and its now fully CP!
(just making sure TBC has all the info!)
TBC,
there is still some controversy about wheather or not the D&H still exists..
its a grey area.
many employess say "my paycheck says D&H on it, so the D&H still exists." thats one point of view, and makes sense if you consider the D&H an operating subsidery of CP and still operating under the D&H name..(I dont know if that is true anymore..)
in my OPINION, and in the opinion of many railfans.. the D&H does not exist anymore..and hasnt existed since the early 1990's when the D&H system was wholly absorbed and taken over by the Canadian Pacific. CP still has three D&H "heritage units" running around in D&H lightning stripes:

but there are not, and will not be, any other new locomotives painted for the D&H.
you would think it would be obvious if a railroad existed or not!
but amazingly, with the D&H, it has been unclear for over 15 years now!
the D&H was a great railroad..I miss it.
I spent much of the 1980's railfanning the D&H along the southern tier..
but the D&H we knew and loved is gone..
