    Question NS C40-8W Cab Differences

    It seems NS uses two types of control stands on their C40-8W models.

    Type One:

    Second Type:
    http://www.railpictures.net/viewphot...d=46250&nseq=3

    Which type goes with which number series?

    Both units are ex CR.. you can see CR paint, blue body and white handles. One of them is just a simple upgrade after a rebuild with new Horsehead paint.

    They were delivered with both styles, as were the SD60Ms. The SD60Ms changed around 5530, and the C40-8Ws changed somewhere around 6120. Perhaps the change was related to adoption of EFI.

    I think all the ac's are equipped with the IFC

    Conrails IFC units started at 6145 IIRC but the LMS units were delivered with the older style analog gauges and such.
