BURLINGTON, Ontario — The Ontario Northland Railway has acquired two locomotives currently en route to the Canadian railroad. A pair of former Norfolk Southern
SD70M units, Nos. 2631 and 2642, sold to PRLX (Progress Rail Leasing), are shown in transit on Canadian National train A422 in Burlington, Ont., on Feb. 15, 2022. They are destined for Ontario Northland’s shop in North Bay, Ont. The 676 route-mile Ontario Northland runs between North Bay and Moosonee, Ontario.
Are these the first wide cabs for ONR?
Daniel, Ontario Northland has 5 SD75I built in London Ontario in 1999. Originally six, lead unit in order, 2100 was scrapped due to wreck damage
Will the Miles go too zero miles on these engines for the New Railroad??
Glad that these 2 Ex NS SD70Ms will serve another railroad and judging by the spray painted PRLX lettering on the side they looked like they were originally headed for scrapping so glad they were saved for now anyway.
