T. Man	General	Ya those engines do look sad and would anybody now if CN retired all the SD45's because they didnt want them anymore or did just suddenly something major go on those locomotives?	6/10/2006 8:48:16 PM

Andrew Sax	General	Well, they are heavy, air polutenting, bad locomotives. Hell, they propable only have 45 horsepower. ;)	6/10/2006 10:19:11 PM

Adam Stromquist	General	They retired them mostly because of the horrible fuel mileage and the sd-45 wasnt known for its reliability.	1/9/2008 11:08:39 PM

Douglas Hildebrandt	General	WC had the best 45s around, the 7XXXs were rebuilt with Q tron or EM2000 and were some of the best pullers around. A key reason CN got rid of them was because they had 20 cyclinders.	1/31/2009 12:17:38 AM

Danny fortenberry	General	If you ask me cn should have downgraded the down to 16 Cylinders if they did that they should have Basically gotten sd40-2s out of them also nice shot	5/3/2022 10:19:25 PM
