    Until recently these units could only be found in BC or as lessors, when BC Rail sold them. Now CN runs them on Intermodals!

  2. Daily lumber

    Daily lumber

    I railfanned in a 2 places today, catching CN, CP, CEFX, SOO, BC Rail, & GCFX (WC). The reason I chose this shot, is because it's a regular train with nothing special about it, exept for the non-CN trailing unit.

    VIA 6444

    I was trying to get a "curve shot", but I zoomed in too much, coming up with this roster instead. VIA 6444 & 6435, both F40PH-2's, leading VIA #2, eastbound Canadian.

    CEMR local

    Curently CEMR owns 7 ex-CN GP9RM's and 3 ex-CP SW1200 series locos (or something close), yet all they send my way in CEMR 4001 & 4002, the GP9RM's I've been catching since 2003. Oh well, they do look good though.

    Rio Grande on CN

    DRGW, SD40T-2, tunnel motor has made it all the way to Canada, on a CN Intermodal. CN isn't big on foreign power, so this was a real nice catch, heading on an eastbound.
