The 7495 leads the 6006 onto the mainline, and will soon be ready for an air test. I sure did cherish this day.
A very late R916, but with a great oppurtunity for shots, sits idle in the yard after dying on hours.
WC 2500 leads 3 others up to the Northtown cut. They will tie on to the cars, and interchange with the BNSF at Northtown. What a great consist!
A beautiful ALL WC consist, led by an SD45, comes off the wye after waiting in the yard for a CP Rock Train.
One of only 24 SD45s left on the CN. Charlie McDade, who started on the WC a few months after start up, is in charge of the 7527 today.
Four EMDs blast over the bridge. What a great site to see a WC SD45 leading again!!!
2 unpatched GCFX units lead an even better unit, a WC SD45. Would have been sooooo much better with the consist flipped!
An old IC SD40, now a SD40-2R, has a CN burner trailing as it easily walks up the High Line.
The 4th of July brings the transfer up the hill early. Rarely do you get them at the time where the sun makes the engines glow.
A look at one of the many "endangered species" on the CN. WC units are disappearing day by day.
Back in September, you could still see 3 SD45's together. This has gotten almost impossible now. Long live the WC!
Engineer Ed Patten starts notching up in the MNNR's yard at New Brighton.
A rare site storms up "shoreham hill" in Notch 8. Nice to see straight IC's with a maroon and gold leading!
WC 6904 pulls a wimpy 4 cars out of Humboldt with 6928 helping out.
WC 6904 rolls past the rest of the train at New Brighton.
