Metra approves $71M contract to replace aging locomotives

I watched the part of the board meeting where the procurement was approved...if Metra gets a load of capital funding from the state expect MANY more refurbed EMD locomotives. I highly doubt they would ever buy the SC-44.
Is it unusual to convert freight locomotives to passenger use?
