440....the only VIA equipment not "compatable" with everything else is the new Rens. And for that matter, the Amtrak Superliners (witness the last International on the Canadian side......no way you can get from a Superliner to an LRC car) <br />They tend to keep LRC cars and HEP-2s in sets because only LRC cars have tilting mechanisms, among other reasons. <br /> <br />However, around Christmas time, and for a period after 9-11, you saw LRCs, HEP-2s, and even a few HEP-1s mixed together, since they had to get everything they had on hand into service, looks were secondary. <br /> <br />~Ra'akone
