635 is attached to an L10 trainset and will be going out on Monday.

636, 637 and 639 have all been delivered fairly recently - they are all grouped together at the west end of the property. The Mimico turn (433?) brought 638 over to the CN yard today, and it should make it across the mainline fairly soon.

Their pal 642 is on the way too; she's keeping it real in Agincourt, and will be visiting Vaughan and Oakville before settling down in her career.

IIRC, 553 brings them from Oakville. There's another train guy here who probably knows if they've changed it or anything recently. A pity CP can't just dump them somewhere on or around the Canpa for CN to lift. It would be a good place for an interchange track.

642 was seen tonight sitting solo in Lambton Yard, facing east, overtop of Runnymede Road.

CN 543 takes them to Mimico from Oakville if you don't remember Porkchop & Wop Dan. ;)

Canadian Railway Observations (CRO):

The last two GO MP40PH-3C units, 641 and 646, are out of MPI and will be forwarded to GO Transit via CN. -DD

Keep an eye out.

D. DeLarge, was this your update by any chance?

It was, but he's also wrong - they aren't the last two to be delivered.

I should correct myself...the last 2 of the current order. Some of the exercised option for 10 more (could possibly be considered part of the current order...) have reportedly been spotted at the plant. And they were already in UMLER as of a few weeks ago.

Sometimes one chooses to keep some of their hand for later, even if they can play them now :D.

Well, it is part of the same order - the order number isn't changing for these 10. At least, it's not supposed to be.

Now, to see what they do with the F59s...
