I'm really looking forward to seeing many more of these at New Brighton on L506 in the future.

Oh Yeah!
Title:  Oh Yeah!
Description:  Here's a shot I got of L506 roaring down to Northtown with a neat looking lead unit! These 21XX series are freshly rebuilt and repainted, and used to be owned by the UP. They have a new lease on life thanks to the CN. I LOVE how this shot turned out as well! While I like how they look on the outside, I bet those cabs are pretty small!
