    SOO variety

    Three Different SOO gondolas, one with WC reporting marks for some reason. That one was caught on CN's mainline, the others were seen at CP's main station. All shot in Winnipeg in 2004. Just though I'd try something different then the usual rolling stock rosters.

  10. Good old SOO

    Good old SOO

    Being a big rolling stock fan I searched throuhg my collection of a couple hundred "beaten" car shots and this is still the best IMHO. Whether it's SOO's white paint that exposes all the rust or the cars longivity, these boxcars can be found everywhere, often in this livery. Long live...
