Known in some circles as the "SD45 killers" these Alstrom SD40-3 rebuild units where leased by CN to replace the venerable WC SD45's. As it turns out the SD40-3's are now being taken off the roster after just a few years of roaming the ex-WC rails. |

WC 7514 was the last SD45 to run on the Rock Job, seen here turning the corner in Antioch with 30 loads for Grayslake. |

The few remaining SD45's on the roster made it into 2007, with this unit running "flares forward" through downtown Grayslake on the Rock Job. |

The Rock Job is entering Grayslake with one of the few remaining SD45's on the property, running long hood forward. Scrawled in the grime below the headlight is "DKD #1". |
