    Most of that should buff right out ;-)

    I don’t think you can buff out a bent frame. Probably going to be parted out and scrapped.

    Or sent back to GE to be rebuilt on a new frame and salvage what they can. You are aware that railroads scrap units if the frame is bent right?

    It probably has been rebuilt.

    According to the Canadian Trackside Guide, 8869 shows as active, so looks like they fixed it.

    Actually I meant it as a joke. I am surprised it got repaired.
