Visitor Comments about this Photo:Fleur de LIS (?) Posted by Bruce Macdonald on 2024-05-13 06:57:24 The Fleur de Lis is the symbol of the unit's last owner New Orleans Public Belt RR. Apparently NOPB acquired 4 ex-NS C40-8s from GE leasing (#4001-#4004) in 2018 and retired them in 2020 when the RR received 8 GP38-2 units. After being in storage for 3 years, the 4 C40-8s were acquired by September 2023 and stored at East Deerfield. Maybe P&W will take this unit to its Plainfield CT paint shop for a fresh coat of G&W orange?
