Since then, many of the older mainline EMDs have been either purchased by regionals and shortlines or retired and scrapped. In Volume 3, we find them in North Dakota, Kansas, Arkansas, Nebraska and Colorado. NOTE: This series is a compliation of great video. Some video has appeared in other CVP programs.
