1501 (1986), 1510 (1987), 1518 (1985) and 1519 (1984) were modified for “euro” Northlander – TEE train service, last used in 1992. 1502 (2000), 1509 (2001) and 1521 (2002) were rebuilt with the Caterpillars to pull the ex GO coaches along with 1501 (after removal of TEE related modification and reverting to original number but still in Northlander paint) and the 1520, which I believe was the last F-unit in service with the Chevron paint scheme pictured here. 1508 was retired in 96 and cannibalized for parts for CAT rebuilds.
