Caption: Working a cut of grain hoppers across from the modern-esque 1990's-built Ontario Government Building on Red Rock Road, CP GP9u's 1574 and 1571 idle along the fenced-off platforms of the former CNR Port Arthur Station. At the time the station, located across from the Thunder Bay Marina, had been converted into a multi-use facility that included an ice cream parlour and space for the Thunder Bay Model RR Association, among other tenants. And another nice touch: a restored wooden CNR caboose graced the grounds nearby on display.
