Railpictures.ca - Stephen C. Host Photo: CN/SOR’s Hamilton yard is a bit of a buzz of activity, CN 1501 is parking in the yard for the night, while CEFX 2006, now off-lease and elsewhere in this continent (CMQ?) is working the yard. Joe Bishop will like this I think, but those CEFX GP20D’s weren’t all that pretty :) I should note this shot is growing in … fast… it won’t be too long before these shots are difficult to get owing to growing trees. | Railpictures.ca – Canadian Railway Photography

CMQ has been GP20D-free for awhile now.

I am afraid they are out of reach, Mike, and the trees are down an embankment hence they are quite tall…. and growing taller.

You need a chainsaw-on-a-pole Host… they’re all the rage with foamers these days, lol.

GP20D’s not so bad. Sort of like a really ugly RS-3. It’s not a red GE, so…

BTW CN now parks hoppers on the track the RDC is on.. for unloading for Plasic Pellets/Cargo Flo. blocking any potential shots. Basically another shot ruined.

Going to be very hard until Cargo Flo shuts down.
