Mid-Michigan Railroad/HESR on the Michigan Shore Railroad

Does anyone know what happened to the former MMRR GP38 engine Mid Michigan Railroad #3836 that used to be on the Michigan Shore Railroad?
I know it's been transfered to Buffalo & Pittsburgh back in 2013-2015, but I haven't heard from it since it ran 6 years ago down there...
By the way is there any new updates about HESR #2025 at Bay City?

Renumbered to BPRR 2039 & somewhere along the line Rebuilt & Sold to Port Bienville Railroad. Kept the Number 2039 but got repainted (PBVR GP38-3 #2039)

Other:

GRE 3839 became MMRR 2057 which was reassigned to MQT
CF&E 3855 became GRE 2104 which was reassigned to GRE
MS 73 became MMRR 1216 which was reassigned to ???
MS 180 got chopped up at Henry Street
MS 179 (Unknown but assumed to have been scrapped)
The KRR Power was returned?

I think MMRR 1216 was sent to Georgia back in August 2015...
I'm not exactly sure where Kiamichi 3801 went...
They used to have a good variety of power of the MSRR.

3805 had its fire on MQT. WIKI for MS should be updated. Shows correct on the MQT WIKI
