    An ex-Canadian wide cab, is certainly quite an evolution, from the Baldwins the original NS ran.....

    They have a variety of power... some GP40-2's (including wide cabs).. used to run some GP38's and GP16's...

    OK. Now you have me straining the gray matter. Who originally had those GP-16 units? I don't recall.
