Union Pacific has taken a rather novel approach with some of their SD40-2s. They removed t he turbos but kept the three radiator fans in a conversion that essentially amounts to an SD38-2 for heavy duty hump service at such major yards as Bailey Yard in North Platte,Nebraska and other locations where SD38 type power is mighty useful. Norfolk Southern still has their substantial Norfolk and Western fleet of engines and most of the Southern SD40-2s still in service. There will still be a place for these engines as long as there are jobs that are not suited for today's newer power. I wonder if any converted for passenger use would be a viable commuter/passenger engine?
