Sometimes you find something in your old shots that surprises you, pictured the strobe light is captured at full brightness as the Stelco beltpack crew is reversing into the "Z" Line to lift a cut of loaded coils in 2014. Unfortunately, Stelco has sold 89, 84 and removed/scrapped any other locomotives that were once on site, and now it's just Stelco trackmobiles now.

Caption: Sometimes you find something in your old shots that surprises you, pictured the strobe light is captured at full brightness as the Stelco beltpack crew is reversing into the "Z" Line to lift a cut of loaded coils in 2014. Unfortunately, Stelco has sold 89, 84 and removed/scrapped any other locomotives that were once on site, and now it's just Stelco trackmobiles now. #89 is now LDSX 6089 and is in the Niagara Area

And if I may add, while the strobe light blinks, there's also a siren going off to warn Stelco employees of the railway movements around and in the building, going off constantly, and it made shooting Stelco quite interesting... because of the siren if I was in the area and heard it going off, I knew railway movements were happening.
