These locos were bought second-hand from the USA when Robe River
required more motive power. The engines were uprated from 3300 HP
(251E) to 3600 HP
(251F), and other items such as the radiators were also upgraded.
They were all rebuilt as part of the CM40-8M
class. The "new" 9417 was a C636 model.
See the CM40-8M class page for tech
specs for the rebuilds, and further notes.
