It would be nice to see them done in CNW livery, but then my wallet would take another hit. I can't recall which CNW purchased and which came as acquisitions from other roads, but some had dynamic brakes, while others did not. Maybe Andrew (FalconService) can clear this up.

All CNW SD40-2's were purchased new from EMD and all had dynamic brakes. You are probably thinking of the secondhand SD45's CNW bought in 1983-1984. The original CNW SD45's lacked dynamic brakes but all the second handers had dynamics.

You can also look for a copy of the 320 page book "Diesels of the Chicago & North Western" by Paul Withers. Morning Sun Books has 4 volumes that cover CNW Diesels in color as well.
