The exterior of CN 50948 is as dated and beat up as the cab interior shot I previously submitted. It has been quite some time since the wheels have rolled and the plow blades have touch the ballast for this spreader.

    They actually don’t use 50948 to spred ballast these days. 50958 is kept in reserve in the yard for winter operations and to spread snow.

    Pretty sure this is the one that was sitting down by Torbram back in the spring of this year.

    It might have been the same one. This picture looks like its shot from the old b yard tracks at Mac Yrd.

    Hmmm, I didn’t even know CN had any in Southern Ontario. CP had a few at last check…could have changed by now.

    CN usually has one stored at Mac Yrd for bad winters.
