Road-Testing New GEs |
| Description: |
Before General Electric completed its own test track at its Fort Worth plant, new locomotives were tested on the BNSF Fort Worth Subdivision main line heading north from the GE interchange. The trains, with either two or four units, were operated by a BNSF crew with two engineers and a conductor plus whatever technicians GE needed. Here were new Canadian National ET44AC units 3055, 3058, 3056 and 3054 heading south at Justin, Texas just a few miles north of the GE plant. |

CP AC4400CWs |
| Description: |
Apparently the Canadian Pacific has a critical need for AC traction motors to repair flood-damaged units. The railroad decided to have the traction motor/axle combos removed from 10 AC4400CW’s that have been at the Wabtec-GE plant in Fort Worth waiting to be upgraded into 8000- and 8100-series AC4400CWM units and to have these trucked to Canada. The 9501, 9539, 9554, 9523, 9525, 9593, 9627, 9506, 9571 and 9536 have been moved to the north end of the 3-mile test track and the work is being done by CP personnel with the help of Hulcher out of Saginaw, Texas. The center combo on each truck is being completely removed, while the end combos are being replaced with idler axles. |

CP AC4400CW 9525 |
| Description: |
This was one of the steerable trucks under Canadian Pacific AC4400CW 9525. The locomotive had been sent to the Wabtec-GE plant in Fort Worth to be modernized into an AC4400CWM, but was about to have its traction motors removed by CP to repair other locomotives. The railroad harvested the motors from at least 11 units and trucked the motor-axle combos back to Canada. |

Here was a view looking south along Justin Cemetery Road at the north end of the Wabtec-GE test track, three miles north of the Fort Worth locomotive assembly plant. On the right were Canadian Pacific AC4400CWs 9525, 9523,9554, 9539 and 9501, part of 10 such units which were having their traction motors removed by a CP crew with help from Hulcher Services out of nearby Saginaw because the railroad had an urgent need for AC traction motors to repair flood-damaged units. The flatbed semi just ahead was one of many such rigs that were used to bring the motor-axle combos up to Canada. In the distance new Canadian National ET44ACs 3193 and 3208 were going through their 50-mile certification process. |
