Railpictures.ca - David Young Photo: Eastbound Vancouver to Toronto intermodal 110-07 arrives at Westfort with CP 8876 – CP 9582 – CP 8553 leading. CP 8876 sports the 2010 Vancouver Olympic paint scheme, one of 20 ES44AC locomotives (CP 8858-8877) painted in this special scheme to commemorate the 2010 Winter Olympics. Soon after the 2010 Olympic flame was extinguished all the units were returned to the current Canadian Pacific block stencil. All except the 8876 which continues to roam the system with the bare white slash on its flanks with the small Canadian Pacific red print remaining. Any trace of the 2010 Vancouver insignia has been painted over. The Current River triple set having hauled two empties from the Richardson’s elevator, is seen parked in track A1 while their crew has their lunch in the nearby “Westfort shack”. Power was CP GP9u’s CP 1633-CP 1571-CP 1694. | Railpictures.ca – Canadian Railway Photography
