Just saw a picture on RP.net of an F-40PH-3 that's new to Metra

6664.1276879830.jpg


Anyone know what the history of these motors is? How many of them were bought and overhauled? What the extent of the overhaul was?
 
The only bit of info I know is that they bought two of them, 215 and 216, which entered service this year. They are ex-Amtrak, and ex-some museum who acquired them after Amtrak.

Metra is rehabbing their F40 fleet (I don't know if they are doing all of them, or just some of them).
