I remember hearing that all six of CDOT's rebuilt GP40s came from ex-CSX GP40s. However, I checked rrpicturearchives and found that the last one, number 6699, is associated with SDP45 NRLX 6592, ex-BN 6592, nee Great Northern 326. However, on the "Rebuilt-GP40" page for the same railroad, it says that 6699 was GP40 ex-CSX 2181,SBD 6272, CRR 2001. Can anyone confirm what the origin for this locomotive was? A Clinchfield GP38 or a Great Northern SDP45?

Ok. Thank you for the clarification. Just wanted to double check the info given on both sites.
