Heritage & History
CP 7014, one of CPKC's five heritage SD70ACUs painted in the "Script" scheme, is the leader of UP ethanol train UEXCC7, seen here passing underneath the former C&NW coaling tower in DeKalb, IL.
Since the abolishment of ATC on the UP Geneva Sub in June 2022, the line has seen plenty of trains with foreign power leaders from all the Class I freight roads, but this is the first train I recall that has one of the CP heritage units make an appearance.
Very unlikely you would have seen an original unit in this scheme on this line back in the day, but today, anything can happen!
