Metra F40C's

  • OK, I posted something similar a couple years ago and never got an answer.  I posted elsewhere on the forum in the Trains Magazine section, but haven't heard anything yet.  I'm hoping the third time's the charm, so here it is:

    Does anyone know for sure the final disposition of the F40C's?  I know 611 & 614 are still in Chicago.  The last pictures I can see of 610 are at Dixmoor, IL, and depending on the website, I've seen pictures of the remainder of the fleet at either Kansas City (Mid-America?) or Alorton, IL.  It looked like a couple of them may have been canibalized in Alorton, but I haven't heard anything definitive about where they ended up after the KCS deal fell through, whether they were refubished or scrapped or what.

  • I personally don't know. Did you try the TRAINS Magazine Forums? They get a lot more traffic than this portion of the site...
  • I actually did, but it was in the middle of another thread and people look like they've already switched topics without answering my question.  I also started a new thread about it a couple years ago and did not get any responses.  Might have to try that again.  Thanks anyways.
