Railpictures.ca - Peter MacCauley Photo: Group photo – CP 5876 has just tied down on the Quebec street shop track after arriving with the westbound London Pickup. Keeping it company are 3111-3048 (Ham Turn power) and the yard geeps, 8209-8215. In a few months, things would be quite different: the Pickup was cancelled, with its’ work being handled by the Ham Turn. Eventually, the Ham Turn would get a set of SD40-2′s to replace the GP38-2′s, and a new nocturnal Guelph Junction Turn (TL-11) job would be created, using the yard geeps for power. | Railpictures.ca – Canadian Railway Photography
