GE's Super 7 M630

Hi, just wondering what happened to GE's Super 7 ex-BCR M630. I know their other M630 went to the D-L, and I always wondered what happened to their Super 7 conversion.
Thanks!

Is this not the one they use to load test other locomotives nowadays?

Yes, they used that one and the standard M630 as brake sleds in testing new units. Just wondering what happened to the Super 7 considering they sold their straight M630.
