I did some research and all of CGW SD40s are still out there and still in service. <br /> <br />In 1966 CGW ordered 9 EMD SD40s, nos 401-409. These were the largest motive power the Great Western would ever have. They were the only 6 motor (axle) units on CGW as well. They were the last power the road purchased. They did test SD45s, GP35s, and GP40s, but ended up ordering the SD40. <br /> <br />(note- MRL is Montana Rail link, IMRL is I&M (Iowa & Minnesota?) Rail link, ICE is Iowa Chicago & Eastern. DME is Dakota Minnesota & Eastern) <br /> <br /><u>CGW 401</u> - CNW 921 - MRL 224 - IMRL 224 - <b>ICE 224</b> <br /> <br /><u>CGW 402</u> - CNW 922 - <b>MKCX 9400</b> <br /> <br /><u>CGW 403</u> - CNW 923 - MKCX 9400 - rebuilt to SD40M-3 - SP 8626 - <b>UP 2702</b> <br /> <br /><u>CGW 404</u> - CNW 924 - CLI 3002 - MRL 3002 - IMRL 221 - <b>ICE 221</b> <br /> <br /><u>CGW 405</u> - CNW 925 - CLI 3003 - MRL 3003 - IMRL 222 - <b>ICE 222</b> <br /> <br /><u>CGW 406</u> - CNW 926 - NREX 926 - MKCX 9402 - HLCX 5050 - DME 6060 - <b>FURX 3014</b> <br /> <br /><u>CGW 407</u> - CNW 927 - CLI 3004 - MRL 3004 - MRL 223 - IMRL 223 - <b>ICE 223</b> <br /> <br /><u>CGW 408</u> - CNW 928 - CLI 3001 - MRL 220 - IMRL 220 - <b>ICE 220</b> <br /> <br /><u>CGW 409</u> - CNW 929 - IMRL 225 - <b>MRL 225</b> <br />
