  3. WC 3009 (GP40)

    WC 3009 (GP40)

    Not that long ago this sight would be unthinkable, back when WC engines stayed on WC rails and CN still had their 278 strong GP40-2LW fleet. Now that most of it has been retired (~60 left), with the need for 3000h.p. 4-axle power remaining, WC GP40's are brought up north to the rescue...

    My CN hotspot?

That's why I chose to railfan CP instead on a regular...

    Back to the future!

    Here we see to different eras of CN power! I have to admit new power is getting old real fast. I'm still proud of this cach, none the less. CN SD70M-2 8026 GP40-2L 9437 and SD40-2W 52xx head west on a manifest with lots of other wonderful surprizes!
