metra209 wrote:metraRI, can you please explain why the SWS has the 8448 still?As far as I know, there isn't a definite reason as to why 8448 is on BNSF/SWS instead of UP other than BNSF needed a car to replace others going to rebuild. It may be a temp move, or 8448 could remain on BNSF.

My guess it would be between 8470-8475.8469-8478 is the BNSF pool.. one or two in that group may have gone elsewhere.. not sure what HC has now, and it will probably all change as the rebuilds come out.
