Caption: And while not a shot of the excursion, Bob will probably like this shot of the 4081 heading out of town. (Sorry, I don't have any records of the shot...southbound to Lethbridge and the Crowsnest Pass line?) Power from rear to front is CPA-16-4 4081, H-16-44 8605, F7B 4441, and an unidentified GP9.

Thanks very much for sharing another shot of 4081. While in Military in Alberta area 1970-88 enjoyed travelling to see F-M. Always liked ro find the obscure!
I do hope the couple of preserved FM units out west are sheltered and maintained. These are critical links to railroad heritage, and only CPR had sense to offer a few for preservation.
Great shot. FM rocks; not as much as steam, but it rocks!
