Curtis-
No worries with the C40-8Ws...they will be around for awhile. They are still considered primary power to be placed on virtually any type of train and especially manifests and intermodals. A number of them have been stored during this poor economy but will return.
The #7300 and # 7900 series are the most notable......the red markers are still in place from the Conrail/LMS days.
