A loacl source notes that at least two ATSF FP45s, the 90 and perhaps the 
92, are now on lease to BN. The 90 was noted leading BN train #1 west out 
of Minneapolis about noon Sunday in company with a CRL SD40, headed for 
Seattle. 

This is apparently due to the pending return of the MK Leasing SD40M-2 
units, which are being run in solid sets west out of Minneapolis towards 
Boise, where they will be inspected, serviced and sent to lease on UP. 
This means they'll no doubt be on CNW occasionally.

BN is said to be leasing over 100 ATSF units, due on the property by 
September. Other units will be coming from EMD Leasing and Helm to BN by 
that time.

Remember that WC will acquire ATSF SD45 5381 and F45s 5955, 5956, 5965 
and 5981 this month.
