Caption: During a hazy summer evening, CN GP9RM 4100 waits for its next assignment at Kitchener, Ontario, along with caboose 79401. Over the years, 4100 was assigned to Kitchener on several occasions, with this being the first time I ever photographed it there.
Now, more than 30 years later and 4100 is currently freshly re-painted and re-lettered LDSX 4100 for GIO Rail. The unit was completed at the Sarnia, Ontario based Lambton Diesel Specialists shop. This unit, along with a pair of former IC SW14’s had been acquired by LDS during 2023 after languishing stored unserviceable in the Niagara/ Welland area for sometime. As of July 12, LDSX 4100 was still observed at the LDS shop in Sarnia awaiting its first assignment on GIO Rail.

LDSX 4100 now!
Absolutely, as noted. Hopefully someone will post a shot of 4100 in its new colors.
It’ll be heading to Welland soon i’m told.
