O.K.... I freely admit that I know nothing about CN and this particular topic (however, I can talk about general asset management or other accounting or economic topics that would probably bore everyone silly What I would like to do is move on without having to lock the topic. I have but one question: WHO WILL POST SOME CN PICTURES??? Harold
So if the bridges on CN are in the last 10% of their useful lives, then what's the point of repainting them? If they need to be replaced, then replace them. A coat of paint won't make a difference. As a modeler I love it that the railroads arn't repainting locomotives. It makes for a much more interesting fleet (especially after mergers, leases and engine sales) - just take a look at the CP stands for "Can't Paint" thread. There are some ugly locomotives out there and they sure make great models.
good to see we have another star wars fan here yankinoz CP, CSX, CN, BNSF, and now UP are all known for not repainting units. no bigee at all. And you think CN's bridges are bad... MOVE TO CLEVELAND we have some NASTY bridges there. [ 09 May 2001: Message edited by: Chessie_SD50_8563 ]
2 reasons why I gave up being a mod . You got a 13 year old expert on the rail business starting a topic that is irrelevant and not true , and rsn48 who is a expert on many subjects including railroad management , oops I forgot , his grandfather was employed by CN so that means he knows alot about the rail business .
