Cool. Why the change from the DMIR power?

Are those re-painted Wisconsin Central SD40's?

This winter-only train runs to Escanaba, Michigan and typically uses motive power other than Missabe (there is one set of Missabe units on these trains, the other sets are gray SD40-3s). The units are rebuilt ex-CN SD40s that were owned by GCFX at one point before being repurchased by CN and assigned to the former WC (hence the WC initials on gray locomotives).

Thanks Dave for the info. I've seen your photos of that Misabe set. I kinda like the grey paint scheme for these WC assigned locos just for something different on the CN.
