Dark day, but great power
Title:  Dark day, but great power
Description:  Four WCs depart New Brighton on a cloudy April day. While the lighting may not be the greatest, the power was excellent! THis was the last time I saw the 7513 & the 7551. Photo was scanned in.

The Good Old Days
Title:  The Good Old Days
Description:  As I'm posting this, I realized that this picture was taken just a bit over five years ago. Take a look at that power, you will never see another lashup like that on the CN anymore. However, five years ago when I took this, this was a very common lashup. How things change over time.
