Nice video. I heard rumors that one of the reasons it failed was be because it was improperly transported and the wheels locked up resulting in flat spots.
Nice research...I was wondering why I hadn't spotted NS using it much if at all. They have some other color schemes in the flamethrower style that I have seen on video of some of their trains.
I hate the fact that NS sold 8520. It looked amazing in the sonic bonnet red. At least it's still in service :). Great video!
I mean it did have a bunch of issues
@@TPB-OPA what kind of issues?
@@lizggil123 I think it had bad performance
@@TPB-OPA why?
@@lizggil123 may have been the way it was designed
I was unaware that NS sold one of their DC to AC with special paint scheme locomotives. Glad I came across your video. Good job on making it.
Thanks
We need more channels like you out there.
I’m glad TH-cam started recommending this channel!
Thanks!
Yeah. Kind of odd that they’d sell it like that, with the paint scheme. Maybe they didn’t want their name tied to that unit?
@@RailsofForney idk, I mean it was rebuilt by caf so... Idk
This video earned a sub
Great video! I never knew this engine was rebuilt by CAF out of all companies. This engine was always my favorite of the repainted NS rebuilds.
Thanks! This is just one of many, and a teaser for a bigger series!
Great Job with this Video. Thanks! 👍🙏
Glad you liked it!
Awesome video, good quality. Keep up the good work!
Thanks a ton!
Great video! Truly learned the story of that unit from this video, I wish the C6Ms would of kept their original cabs tho. Subscribed!
Thanks for watching!
You did an amazing job on this video.
Thanks
Awesome video.
Thanks!
Do you think NS will take 8520 back? I heard that they might but idk how true that info is
Maybe, klwx fixed the problems so maybe
Nice video. I heard rumors that one of the reasons it failed was be because it was improperly transported and the wheels locked up resulting in flat spots.
Thanks for the info!
I saw 8520 when I was like 5 idk it was in olean New York idk why it was up there I am so thankful I got to see 8520.
Glad you saw it!

Yeah 8520 was being leased to the UP for the longest time, it could be on the CN now though, it was reported two months ago on UP trackage in Nebraska
Oh
8520 used to be a C36-7 before they scrapped them
Oh?
It used to be on the YVRR and I saw it,
Cool
Great job!
Thanks!
ARE WE NOT GONNA TALK ABOYT IT BEING ON YVRR
They should add NS 8520 and it's klwx livery in South line district
Exactly
I really thinks it’s weird that how it’s not a 4000 to forty something hundred number series locomotive because it’s more of an AC44C6M.
I think they did that to differentiate them
I mean it was rebuilt by caf and not GE
Well yeah it was rebuilt by CAF but it’s still technically a GE. Also what does CAF stand for?
Idk, car and frame company?
8520 is currently on lease to UP iirc
That and cn
8520: AC44C6M JUST WITH CAF PARTS and ITS ORIGINAL CAB, and that was a FAILURE! That’s it in a nutshell
Pretty much lol
I think this video is going to get a lot of vies
Yes!
Nice
Thanks
The CF probably stands for Complete Failure
Lol
Interesting 😅
Very!
