Well all this talk of trackmobiles working on subdivisions that will be taken over by CN shortly got me thinking. Fortunately I had one working near my location last night. This GO Rail King G6 has a hold of 6 air dump cars that are being used to provide ballast for a track and switch replacement at Canpa. RK320 Cummins QSB Tier 4 Final Engine. Provides up to 46,550 lbs of tractive effort. Sounds like even trackmobiles are becoming eco friendly.

    I guess this answers the question:what does a go freight train look like.

    LOL@Snake. Are you referring to the picture using a cell phone or me not operating a locomotive? HAHA
