Hey guys, I saw this post on a Facebook group, and want to know how true this is, and if it is, what route will it take, and if anyone knows more about these moves, know what times they will leave? Thanks.

Original Post:

Heads Up!! BNSF is sending 50 retired SD40-2s in two 25-locomotive sets from Stockton, CA to Memphis, TN for interchange to CN and finally to CP in Chicago. Canadian Pacific has purchased these 50 SD40-2s from BNSF and will use them on trains in Canada, following inspections, modifications to CP specifications and repainting. First train:

I do believe we already have a similar thread on this topic.

Let us lock this one and concentrate on the other one, shall we?
