With all the new motive power around today sporting CN's current paint scheme, it sure is nice to catch a couple of old standard cab workhorses in old paint even if they are in dire need of a repaint. The GP38s have only had a few modifications over the years such as the addition of ditch lights, relocated horn and new electronic bells. The 4717 is a new unit for me. Here we see local 551 working the industries on the north track after working the glass lead. The last car, a centre beam loaded with lumber is destined for Tamarack Lumber in Burlington to be dropped on the return trip to Aldershot.
