Needed, SD40-2 info!

[Maxwell Plant]

Hello BNer's! I need some info about my BN SD40-2 #6333. Has it been retired, patched or repainted for BNSF? Anyone have any pics of this phase I SD40-2? I also need the same information for my SF SD40-2 "Snoot" #5027. Anything helpful, PLEASE!
Thanks!

On the BNSF roster summary it's identified as a stored SD40u?

Oh, the 5027 still seems to be kicking, except it now numbers the 6335-62 slot... I think it's 6342.

Anyone know if they were "patched" or painted H1? http://www.trainboard.com/confused.gif

<font color="336633">The ATSF unit would have been BNSFized as for the BN unit i very much doubt if it was patched, only a few BN locos seem to have had that done and such an old 40-2 wont have been H1'ed either as surely it will meet the scrappers torch soon</font>
