I was at the interviews recently and nobody asked about engines in that kind of detail. However there is no harm in knowing it I guess.
To add to the list:
The A340-600 has the Trent 556 - 56,000 lbs thrust.
The 747-400 has (I think although this is sketchy) the RB211-524H-T at 60600lbs thrust, although some are down-rated to the RB211-524G-T at 58000lbs thrust. Its all on the rolls website which refers to the newer RB211s as the -524G/H-T, these are the ones with the Trent high pressure system. Also most of it is right here on pprune.
Ciao.

Sorry to be stupid but does anyone know what will the 747-8F be using?

I believe it will be powered by GEnx-2B67 giving about 66,500 lb of thrust.
