Man I want some "Cowls" though!!!!

25 CREX units went to CN, some are active, but not all just yet. All will be repainted sooner or later as they are shopped for various work. As for the cowls, only 8 CN are still active and 4/5 BCOL units running at last count. They are indeed circling the drain.

Man o' War

OK Man o' War, do you have access to which "Cowls" are "Active" on the roster? What are the numbers for the 8 CN ones? Also, what loco numbers for the BCOL "Cowls?"
Any "Zebra Cowls?" I also notice on "Heritage Units" that BCOL 4609 has been spotted recently in Wisconsin! Man, I want to see some "Cowls" this weekend!!!! I will be "Railfanning" Pt. Huron with "Mazon" Sunday July 4th and Monday! Would LSRC be operating under the Blue Water Bridge Mon. July 5th?

BNSF 8180 is L500.

Depending on which train is in Cory (either the first or second EB) that would provide clues as to whether which one was A492 and A450. A450 works Cory Yard to drop off racks/Lansing local freight and picks up racks to take to Flat Rock.

The one that just left Cory is a wb, crossed at maple and lights by here now.
