Tom Beckett General The unusual numbers are due to these units being former LMS lease fleet units. Conrail's Quality C40-8's were in the 6100 and 6200's. LMS was a venture where CR and CN jointly owned the power, with each road getting the units at different times of year. CR bought out CN's share, taking full ownership. Interesting album. Good to see the old SP and DRGW power before UP took everything over. 5/25/2015 1:09:58 AM
