Following a special request from a RWA member, here is my last repaint: SD40T-2 Canadian National. Should be ready soon.

And here is the final version of my repaint. The only thing I'm not sure is the nose top, should be in red or black? I didn't find any picture on the Web showing an aerial view of this model. !*don-know!*

Thank you EngineerJohn but It's not the same model as mine. The both sides of the cab is in black and your example shows the model with the cab red sides. Numbers are different as well. !!howdy!!

Is this supposed to be a fictional locomotive? I don't think CN ever had tunnel motors, or at least painted in that scheme.

No fictional but according to photos taken on the web. A little different because there is no SD40-2 like those in TS.

The locomotive #908 is a CN Tunnel motor (SD40-2T) but the locomotives the subject of the repaint #5007/5013 are standard SD40-2 check the location of the rear radiator grill.

CN doesn’t have any SD40T-2’s either. CN rosters tunnel motors through their acquisition of the B&LE and DM&IR, but they are all former SP SD45T-2’s that have been rebuilt to SD40-3 standards.
