7/85
955     5/62    27166   2232    2826    rblt by MK to
GP39M

I am sure that the remaining motors will eventually be assigned/renumbered in the BNSF numbering scheme, but I haven't so indicated them on my roster until I can confirm that they have actually been renumbered.

You can also find more detailed info on all of the Burlington GP30s on the BRHS website roster section at www.burlingtonroute.com

One of the links on the BRHS site is to Eric Jacobsen's excellent Burlington page. He has a link on his page that lists all known exsisting photos of Q motors on the web.


Regards,
John Lewis

I am trying to find information or photos of an ex-Q GP30 that was
painted into BN colors by early 1971. This would be from the #940-955
series units transferred to Seattle after the merger. I want to
renumber a Proto2000 BN unit, but can't seem to find a photo to
confirm one was repainted anywhere. The BN numbers were 2217-2232. I
would appreciate any help on this, especially references to published
photos. BTW, I checked the Archives, but found no leads there.
