Railpictures.ca - Carl Noe (Collection of Jason Noe) Photo: Leased GATX GP40G 3080 and Cape Breton & Central Nova Scotia Railway (CBNS) C630M 2035 are viewed ready to depart for their return trip to Goderich at Stratford, Ontario on February 6, 1994. The winter of 1993-1994 was a brutal one for GEXR’s fleet of second-hand GP9’s and by early February, most were either out of service or severely ailing, which forced RailTex to lease power or transfer from their other operations. | Railpictures.ca – Canadian Railway Photography
