Remarks & Notes

Photo taken by Glen Fisher, my father-in-law. He is is a railway consultant and was involved in the BC Rail Tumbler Ridge electrification during the early 1980s. This shot shows testing of the GF6C locomotives before regular service on the line began. All have since been retired and the line deelectrified. Behind BCOL 6001 is EMD test car ET840 and behind that are three SD40-2s (1 CN & 2 BC Rail). For another view of this consist click here. Unknown location, please let me know if you have information on the exact location.
