whatever happened to 3001? I was there on the day it rolled out of the shop, you could smell the paint! I was curious since the G & W takeover.

It became MQT 3389 when it was repainted orange. Currently the only one of the original 3 GLLX SD40-2s left on Marquette, with the other two on the HESR now.
