When I saw the thumbnail I thought "what the...?"
|
Very interesting, but I assume those locomotives do not MU together! Hopefully, the C36-7i units also still remain in service up to now?

There are about 35 C36-7i units in service now.
|
Why is Estonian Railways getting rid of the C36-71's?

Well, that is not true. They are working and continue to work. But all ex-Conrail C30-7Ai's are out of service due to lack of freight traffic.
|
I think the Estonian Railways needs too replace all of the ex-Russian locomotives with all American GE locomotive's like for ex- Union Pacific C40-8 GE locomotives and also get some ex- Dash-8 -40B and ex-BNSF Dash-9 locomotives that are sitting in the dead line on the BNSF in the United States of a America.

There is no need for that. Although latvian railways is considering to purchase new TE33A locos from Kasakhstan (based on GE ES44AC).
|
Will Estonia get some of the T33A's you know the (GE ES44AC's) for the railways in Estonia?

Probably not. At least not in the near future.
