The book THE HIGH PLAINS ROUTE by Richard Kistler shows a GP-40 in CB&Q (not BN)paint with the caption "In 1968, the Burlington ordered 20 GP40s to add to their fleet of 20 such units purchased two years earlier." If they had not been available til the mid 70s they would have been in BN paint. It's the "da***wo" versions of the GP-38 and 40 that came out in the 1970s. Visual spotting differences include the site glass on the side of the da***wos and there are differences in the trucks on the da***wos compared to the 1960s units. <br /> <br />Ed
