IF Only All CP Units Were This Clean...
Author: CNW8531

The world would be a much nicer place.   My world would be anyway as I live along CP's Davenport sub.  These SD40-2's look really sharp in this new red paint, though are very hard to get.  These photos were taken in November of 2017 and February of 2018 and I've not seen any of these units since.  Where are they hiding?

The 5100 rebuilds (5100-5109) are now SD40-3s. The 2020 CTG lists home terminal for 5100-5103 and 5105-5109 as St Paul. The 5104 is Calgary.

For the 2 in your pics-
5106 was rebuilt from SD40-2 CP 5969
5108 was rebuilt from SD40-2 CP 6034

Clean because they're "new". It won't last.

These have to be some of the most 'original' looking rebuilds of SD40-2's.  No goofy cab mods, no massive PTC arrays, no RV air conditioners perched on the cab roofs.  The last probably to the operating crews dimay.
