Caption: Has it been enough time yet? Remember when CN Took back the Guelph sub and you couldn't spit without finding either a GMD-1 or some GMTX poo blue units which were leased to cover for the shortline takeovers (GEXR, RLHH). Remember when only locals cared about the Guelph sub and the railfan community didn't go nuts for the Kitchener terminal? There was just a handful of us out most of the time and we were just (re)collecting our CN shots that, some of us (me included) missed the CN action in 1998 or prior. The Guelph sub was just another sleepy secondary line that still didn't attract crowds.. until it did. The crowds are still coming - this line is quite popular with some crowds down in the US as they figured out why.. and once the pandemic and border restrictions eased, game on - but the GMD1's were gone by then. Noe did an article on the takeover with contributions from myself and Jason Bartlett for Railpace - I'd be damned if I can find my copy though. Looks like Back issues are sold out too. here's a link to the issue
