Nice shot of rare power! WC are getting rarer everday it seems. CN is getting rid of a lot of the older units. Nice shot!

Rob, Thank you very much. Yes, it was great to capture not one but two WC SD45s in action here, and yes, they are becoming more and more rare. I think I've seen perhaps two of them all year this year at Pine (though better luck can usually be had at Markham/Homewood). IMO it is a tragic loss. I see a lot of rebuilds with SD45 bodies, but it just isn't the same as seeing (and hearing!) the originals with their 20-cyl. motors. Mike R.
