lol yea but Q400 sometimes doesnt come with its usual power mix,it sometimes comes 2 or 3 engines but most of the time with a lot of power.this is one odd lash up,would've been better if the NS could lead but i guess it couldnt because of lack of cab-signals

I am guessing they took the power from F701 or the WSSB run and stuck it on here.

probably because the GP40 has cab signals & the 2 other units must not have cab signals,as train like this one,that use the old RF&P,MUST have cab signals
