Cando Contracting's GP9 CCGX 1000 sits with caboose 200001 at Orangeville Yard in 2001. Unit 1000 was the initial power for the Orangeville-Brampton Railway when Cando started operations in the early 2000's, but was eventually replaced with 4009 (an ex-CN rebuilt GP9). Caboose 200001 (ex-CN 79843) was eventually sent west to operate on Cando's Central Manitoba Railway (CEMR). As of present-day, Cando has been replaced by Trillium as operator of the OBRY.
