They did not have any SD40-2's on the railroad.

Although they did have what you call a SD40T-2. These where the tunnel motors. These where in both versions of lettering.

Yes, I believe they did and I remember seeing some come through Aurora on BNSF run through trains. I also believe they all had the old lettering.
