A visitor from the north...sort of...In 1998, Canadian National purchased the Illinois Central railroad. However, CN still identifies the former IC units on its roster. This C40-8W is one of only 42 such units Illinois Central had. Although it now wears standard Canadian National colors, a small "IC" is painted on the cab, indicating the heritage of the unit.
