Did KCS get there GP40-2W’s from CN because they look just like CN’s GP40-2W’s. I was wondering because when i saw this engine i thought it was a CN engine.

It looks as though your suspicions are correct:

Thanks Don it was bugging me so bad! I saw like five of those engines while i was in Tupelo and i wondered are those old CN units are what? BTW in Tupelo all the KCS trains had nothing but Geeps it was great always the same power either GP40-2W, GP40-2, and the best Geep ever the GP38-2!
