A 50-unit order was delivered before the turn of the century in the KCS gray paint scheme. Beginning in 2007, these units were renumbered and repainted into the attractive -Southern Belle- paint scheme that they wear today. With the recent merger of KCS and CP, these locomotives are expected to be seen across the entire Continent.
