Comments on: Freshly painted ex SOO/CP SD40-2 Prairie Line #3001 is coincidentally parked beside another former hump SD of the same series CP 6621. Note the hump control connector still under the crossover platform of the 3001.

3001 is on a westbound manifest on the NS Chicago Line, with 2 CP AC4400CWs and a UP AC45 behind it. Met another manifest with a CP AC4400CW and UP AC45 in Chesterton Indiana.

It’s a former SOO/CP 6600 series unit, just not sure of it’s exact previous number, at least it’s a survivor!

Origin of 3001? Classy paint job!

And the ‘P’ on the nose of 3001 looks like an older ‘CP’ italic font. Very nice.
