Rock GP-38-2's 4368-4379 went to GTW 5850-5861 they still have these numbers as CN units. I see these off and on working in and around Glenn yard in the Chicago area on the former GM&O trackage.
   
  Rock 4300-4351 went to MOP and were in a 2200 series number scheme. UP kept the same number series until they went into the UPY reporting marks for yard and low horsepower units. I thik alot of these went into a 600-700 series  I THINK but am not sure.
   
  Rock 4352-4355 were owned outright by the RI qand were sold to P&LE in a 2050 series I think they were numbered 2056-2059 but not sure at this moment.
   
  The forem CNW 4600-4634 units that Rock ordered but never got are in the same UP 600-700 series but not all 35 untis are not on UP roster. some of them were returned to the lessor and I know of at least the 4627 was photgraphed at NRE in Dixmoor years ago. Some of thes eunits I'm told UP added dynamic braking to some of these units.

    This previous email reminded me of something I've been meaning to ask for a while.  Does anyone know the current whereabouts of RI's GP38-2 fleet?  

It is my understanding that they went to the GTW, and MoPac, while the P&LE got a few, and the CNW took over an order that was on the books at shutdown.  This would put most of them with the CN and UP now.  Any idea what the current road numbers are for the ex-RI units?  

Thanks a lot,
