    I have been looking for pics of this unit, it is a GP40M and the only one I can find is from 1989 which is right after it was re-built. I need to know if it ever was givin a American flag, EOT deadhead sticker above the numbers on long hood, or any other dodads. I would like to find a picture from 93-95.
    Thanks for the help,
    Kevin

    I read your question all wrong... At first, I posted photo links for the unit pre-rebuild. Doh!

    I just googled it--I expected RP.net or RRpicturearchives to have something close. ;)

    Was this a wreck rebuild? Or renewal and upgrade?

    BN 3508 is a rebuild of CB&Q GP40 630 then BN 3030. The locomotive went through a general rebuild of the GP40's by BN in 1989

    It was part of the GP30/35/40 fleet to GP39M/E/V and GP40M/E. The E's were rebuilt by EMD, M's by MK, and the V's..... well forgot that one.
