Caption: A trio of dead-in-tow EMD SD75Ms from Norfolk Southern, Ex-Santa Fe, sit in Fort Erie awaiting to be hooked up to CN 561, The replacement train to CN 530 at the time. These units would end up at K&K Recycling in Pickering, ON. This is probably last time they were ever on the head end of a train, even if it was just for a few minutes while they switched over from NS C93 to CN 561.

Wow, so sad that they were on the way to be scrapped so soon. Not a very long life for these units. I have shots of them brand new from GMD London in the then reintroduced War Bonnet scheme!
I see intact numberboards. They dissapeared in port rob then cause the next day they were on 422 and missing.
The last few the boards were missing on the US side
