A photo that would make Rail King proud with about 20 loaded cars in tow, this Trackmobile is shoving to the rear at a measly 1 or 2 MPH....... sloooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow. Now, CN SW1200 7304 roams these rails eliminating the need for the Rail King, for now. This was one of my first attempts to find 7304 since it was on the property in mid 2014... but I found this instead and decided may as well document it before it's gone. Not exactly something railfans like to document.. what do you think? Are trackmobiles your thing or no?

    I believe they serve their purpose in certain areas, but Parkdale yard was made for the sw’s to roam!

    I’m with Angelo on this one but personally I almost always prefer an actual locomotive of some sort #foamerproblems
