Just another day on the Adirondack Sub. |
Description: |
In 1993, big MLWs were still common on CP trains in the east. Here two examples provide the muscle while an RS18 leads the way. Worth noting are the remnants of the original 5" striping on the cab front wall of both M630s. Unfortunately, I don't know if this train had come north off the D&H or west from St. John. |

Title: |
M640 |
Description: |
The one and only M640 on the St. Luc deadline. Retired in the early 90s as a result of a connecting rod being thrown through the one-of-a-kind 18-cyl 251F block. Replacement with a 16-251 was allegedly considered but deemed impractical. Luckily, today she is cosmetically restored and a focal point in the main exhibit hall of the Canadian Railway Museum. |
