Sutherland plow
To date I've only been able to make rosters of the Wilkie and Brendenburry plow, since our own, Sutherland plow just sits at the shops with his back turned to the public. I finally got lucky today, while shooting the Holiday train - look over the couplers and whom do I see?

This looks like a scene from the 80s with "CP Rail" on everything, including the plow, caboose, CP 1621 (GP9u), 3127 (GP38-2) and other stuff, such as old 40' boxes, in the background. Guess the crews don't have side vision on this plow. Don't mind the caboose, he's just stored there, like the plow. Nice to see he doesn't have graffiti on the nose, unlike the Wilkie one. Compare to the Bredenbury version who has wings, same angle too: http://tinyurl.com/3bcqbe
All those plows are built the same with wings, if you were to get a closer look you would see them. the plywood is no doubt just there to protect the glass windows, they probably have lost some windows in the past thus the covering.
