LDS has been part of several Rebuild / Refurbishment Projects over the years. Below are some pictures to highlight a few.
ETR 105
​
The Essex Terminal Railway awarded LDS the privilege to remove and replace the prime mover in the ETR 105. The prime mover was the original project which turned into a full overhaul and paint job.

ETL 104
Another fantastic project to be a partner with Essex Terminal Railway on! The ETL 104 was not as invasive as the 105 but included a cab upgrade / Full engine rebuild with 645 power assemblies and all new accessories / New truck assemblies with new D77 Traction motors and "Fat 40" wheel sets / New Paint scheme.






Crews 1569
​
Canadian Rail and Equipment Works is another great company that LDS has partnered with on a few projects over the years. None as large as the 1569. With a full makeover that included 32,000 Lbs of added steel for tractive effort. This job required the team at LDS to uncover the bones of this old SW1500 and re-sheet everything. A Full new CREWS paint scheme along with Full engine overhaul / All new traction motors and wheel sets. This is the prime example of what we can accomplish here at LDS. The whole crew at LDS enjoyed being a part of this build!
