3 SD40-2's and an SD40 have 772...I'm pretty sure that was the number, getting close to Edson with a Coal Valley - Thunder Bay unit coal train. I'll be honest, Edson is not the most scenic place in Alberta, but when get into the mountains towards Coal Valley and Cadomin, it is spectacular. If there had been more work for the guy loaned out on layoff from Southern Ontario, I would have stayed in a heartbeat.

    Eastbound between Bickerdike East and Big Eddy, the Highway 47 overpass is in the background. About 7 miles west of Edson.
