Railpictures.ca - A.W.Mooney Photo: With the onslaught of GP40-2L(W)locomotives, of which more than 275 were on the scene by 1976, it was becoming increasingly difficult to catch CN trains powered by MLW C-630M diesels. Pictured here are CN 2007, 2009 westbound thru the signals at Mile 2, Dundas, just before going over the York Rd bridge. Note open auto cars, and TOFC; both of which are never seen today. This is still a reasonable photo location, mid-afternoon and on. | Railpictures.ca – Canadian Railway Photography

Nothing finer than a pair of these beasts on tonnage. Thanks for the great shot Arnold, and more evidence that 85′ and 89′ TrailerTrain flats operated in Canada.
