The only patched CNW AC4400CW with an unpatched nose sits at KCS Knoche Yard as a DPU on a coal load. Thanks to our friend in Chicagoland for this one. You know who you are.
Notice there is no nose patch

You can see the C&NW number (8805) on the hood through the patch.
Ex-C&NW AC4400CW
Flying over a SD70MAC in BN Paint was the patched CNW we caught in Drexel on the KCS tiis morning. It is now on its way west through BN Jct. on UP Train CWXVM 08.
They didn't put the yellow square on here first before the UP Shield on the nose when they patched CNW 8805, and the ball and bar is showing throuigh on the side. There is also new Scotchlite, and the old CNW Model Designation and number is still visible. Hard to believe this hasn't been owned by the CNW proper for 15 years.
A coal train off the UP was tied down in Drexel Siding on its way back to the UP. You might notice the old CNW 8805 number is almost fully exposed, and the unit has new yellow Scotchlite.
Wow, that UP patch didn't hold up well on the long hood.
EX-CNW 8805 rolls through Atchison.
The rear DPU on this train was another patched ex-CNW AC4400.
