Railpictures.ca - Bill Thomson Photo: Following the behind the CP Plow extra in the previous photo, a snow-covered CP C424 4210 and leased B&O GP38 4803 head a northbound freight up the Owen Sound Sub, south of Owen Sound. Probably an extra freight as there’s a white flag on the engineer’s side of the lead unit; presumably snow drifts took the other one. | Railpictures.ca – Canadian Railway Photography

I worked on a plow on the Woodstock branches in the mid 80s that included a leased B&O 4800 unit. In our case it caught fire west of Ingersoll on the St. Thomas Sub & we delivered it back to Woodstock dead later that day.

I was looking at my old timebooks and see that I also had a similar consist on an extra out of London (Quebec St.) to Goderich in 1985.
