Sitting in the spur
Title:  Sitting in the spur
Description:  The 7512 has just coupled up to the 6555 and will begin to start picking up cars in the yard. This was the first time I took a picture of an SD45. Too bad they are all gone now...

Classic WC
Title:  Classic WC
Description:  This could almost pass as a mid 90s picture! I was very lucky to get the 7512 & 7518 on a train together with the old paint scheme! You can see some of the old BN pain coming through on the 7512 (under the cab).
