CEFX 404
Title:  CEFX 404
Description:  This diesel has a very lhng history and has worn quite a few reporting marks and numbers. In September 1970 EMD delivered this unit to B&O as GP38 4805 and after the CSX merger 3805 became 2105. In November 1991 this unit was wrecked, retired, and sobd to NRE for rebuilding emerging as GP38-2 CNW 4705 on long term lease. This Geep went through another merger and emerged on the other side as UP 2064 in May 1995, then UP 1904, UP 370, and finally UP 404 in August 2001. In Obtober 2003 UP retired this former B&O/CSX/CNW Geep and she went to CEFX. After some quick patching this old timer is back out on the road in lease service spotted working on BNSF rails but still in CNW dress.
