Sounds like a job for Kicking Horse and his telephoto lense. Slowly but
surely we are getting more maroon/tuscan and grey units out there, although
some are variations of the scheme. A shot of Pacific Wilderness GP10 706 at
Wellcox Yd was posted to a.b.p.r. by Bob Winkler yesterday and although
obstructed by some brush, it and it's sister are also in a tuscan, grey and
yellow scheme.

If you're interested, I have posted Bob's shots of the PWR units & coaches in
the files area of the Canadian-Passenger-Rail list's page at ONElist.

Does anyone know if they did a proper job on the 3084, the right colors

and

proper number and lettering style, or is it botched up like the F's?

The lettering on the Fs does have a lot to be desired. But what is wrong
with the colours? Yes, the letters are tape instead of paint, but what are
the other problems?

I managed to catch up with 9300 and 9301 and the North End or the Larchwood siding at Mile 95.8 Cartier sub and got some pictures there then continued up to Cartier and Pull in at the same time as the train. They had to stop at Cartier for a crew cahnge so i shot a roll of film there and even got a change to have a look in the cab, there is quite a bit of room up there there were 4 people in the cab and still some room to walk around. I was in a hurry to leave and forgot my notbook so i didn't catch the paint schemes on the other units. I'll find out when i get the roll developed. 9300 bleched out quie a bit of black smoke as it was pulling out of Cartier too bad i didn't have the camera ready for that.

The "PrettyPark.exe" virus is again making the rounds. We don't need to
get into virus warning on the list because we all know what to do by now.

Thanks.

If CP is willing to repaint a 4 axle unit in it's beautiful maroon and grey
scheme, why are they reportedly eager to get rid of the SOO and D&H

schemes o

other 4 axle units? It does not make sense. Tom.

CP 3084 is a spare for the tour train, painted to "match" the F's.

If I'm not mistaken, all of CP's orginal 40-2's have extend range brakes
and the largest fuel tanks...
Extended range dynamics was standard on the dash two line for that
option...(I think)

From what I remember thre was a company called Canadian Prototype something
...
Never saw the kits down here in the states though......

408 is a manifest train (Alyth to Toronto).

The lack of AC power on the QGRY and OVR probably has as much to
do with the lack of insurance these carriers have as well as
crew training, etc.

No AC power is permitted on the OVR for those reasons and I'm sure
it's the same for the QGRY.

When the grain train derailed near Lochalsh this winter, AC power
was initially banned from the trains detouring via CN. Subsequently
the AC units were permitted, as trail only, and then allowed to
operate as leaders after CN issued special operating bulletins to
thier RTE's (running trades employees).

Good evening folks:

I'm looking for contributions to the CPR Locomotive Roster and Photo
Archive. Lay that old maroon and gray on us !!

Have a peek at:
"
or "
and you will see what I'm working towards.

I will even steal things from your web site if you authorize such. Please
let me know.

Hopefully, this will evolve into a great resource for us all.

I will be posting weekly messages to C-P-R noting what has been added.

Thanks. :)

Hi folks!,

Here's the pic of 9300 & 9301. Almost ran out of light. There are a couple
of other shots tossed in from earlier in the day.

I have an HCRY to post later.

Either way it is best to get a waiver rather than "sneaking in", better to
play it safe than to get charged for trespassing!!! Oh and by the way, if
your looking to get some good shots there always is the Mactier sub, up here
at the VIY there is always something to see. If your into lots of SD's and
AC's and Mac's this is the place to spot em', ooops there goes my well kept
secret!

You will need to stop in at the main building which is where the

hump tower is located. I believe the office for the waiver is on the third
floor (might have changed) and once again once you have this waiver please
proceed with caution.<


The building you are talking about is the GYO (general yard office.) It
does sit beside the hump, but the ``hump'' tower, actually the retarder
tower, is a little further to the east.
