    7311 is the only one left on the roster, officially

    CN did recently acquire another SW1200RS, DMIR 1250 has joined the roster (nee CP) and has joined former Hallett Dock in Duluth MN.

    CN purchased the Hallet Dock #5 and got the 1251 along with it, hence why 1250 is numbered as suc.

    It’s reportedly replacing Hallet Dock NW2 #12 which is in a sharp paint scheme also sitting at Dock #5. CN has been using it for a couple years and I guess it’s not up to the task…

    Bottom line is the SW1200 roster is growing :) but still only 7311 is officially on the roster for some reason, for now.

    So there’s 7304 assigned to a subsidiary, 7311 on the roster at Mac Yard, RT110 at Mac assigned to a subsidiary, the American units you’ve listed, and to be confirmed, a unit or two out west… Winnipeg iirc

    RT110 has 1394 for number boards. Last time I saw it it didn’t have RT110 on the sides anymore – likely covered in grime.
