I am looking for a page kinda like that one with all the Superliner numbers, except I'm looking for one like that with F40s, And I'm also looking for a web page or something that has a record of were they went, a Rail Magazine I read said that some went to Alaska and a place called "Rail World Locomotive Leasing" and some got stored,,


dose any one know the rest of the story about were the rest went?

Amtrak F40 #307 has been donated to and is on display at the North Carolina Transportation History Museum in Spencer, NC. Saw her there just this past Sunday.

Plans call for #307 to be a part of the exhibits in the currently being restored Southern Railway Backshop at Spencer.

These 2 webpages have all the info you are requesting. The first page just so happens to be the OFFICIAL webpage of the preserved F40PHR231 in Portland, Oregon :
http://www.f40phr231.org/

This "GoByTrain" website has an EXTENSIVE listing and current status of Amtrak Locomotives and cars:
http://gobytrain.us/amtrak/notes/index.html

The information on those two pages should answer your questions!
