Whilst reading of caboose marker light meanings, I recalled this
little
joke I saved a few years ......

Some knob writes to a newsgroup:
Are they the RED, White and Blue-green light at the top of the

engine

faceplate?
If they are, I thought they were there for showing seniority

levels.

Response:
Yes. The engineer with the most seniority gets to show green lights.
The next oldest gets to show white lights.
All others have to keep the lights extinguished except for the

youngest

engineer who must display red lights and take the siding for

everybody

else.

Bill,

How about the CNR conductor walking down the aisle of a passenger coach
being stopped by a lady passenger.

"Oh Conductor, I was just wondering; what do the stars and bars on the
sleeve of your uniform jacket mean?"

"Well, ma am," answered the conductor, "the stars are the number of
times I've been married, and the bars are the number of children I
have."

"Oh, my." exclaimed the lady.

"Why, what's the matter," asked the conductor.

"Well, I couldn't help noticing that you're brakeman is of very loose
morals."

"What on earth makes you say that," asked the conductor.

"Well', answered the lady, "I see he has three children, and he's never
been married.'

CP 3005. Is it AC power? Just wondering?

No. GP38AC and similar models are not AC locomotives, they have AC
alternators but power is coverted to DC for DC traction motors.

Yes the 3000-3020 are all AC. 3017 to 3019 are SOO Line and the 3004 is E&N Railfrieght.

I don't know if you would know but maybe you could point me in

the right direction. What I would like to know is, in a "U" sleeper were
the partitions between sections a permanent piece or were they removed
during the day. Reason is I am detailing my Shoreham cars (HO) and want to
be as close as possible to prototype. Any help would be appreciated,
Thanks Don Forsyth. NMRA/PNR/CPSig

CN now comes into Lambton off the CN Weston Sub. 577 is actually handling
traffic from CN's former KO10 ( the Leaside Job) out of Mac Yard.
As CN is no longer using the Leaside Spur , no CN/CP interchanges are made at
Leaside. It is all now done at Lambton.

Where does CN connect with Leaside? Is it via the connceting track down
through the Don Valley and into the TTR?

Never in my life have I seen a train cross that viaduct that crosses the
Bayview/Bloor ramp, the CN Bala Sub and Bayview Avenue near the old Toronto
Brick works.

They only removed the decal that had E&N Railfreight and applied the new
lettering. Nothing was done to the paint.

Through the entire vicinity that's usually referred to
as Bayview (The CP Hamilton sub and the trackage
rights on CN's Oakville sub) there are many CP trains
through the primarily CN area...

441 To Toronto Via Oakville sub
521 " "
523 " "
525 " "
557 " "
733 " "
735 " "
911 Northbound via Hamilton sub
440 Southbound via Hamilton sub
512 " "
522 " "
558 " "
730 " "
734 " "
912 " "

Then there are the two semi-regular 504-505 Detours
which travel up the Dundas sub and onward to Chicago
Via CN...

440/441 are recent additions, I know they originate
and terminate in Winnipeg, but other than that I'm in
the dark. 512 is also a recent addition to avoid
congestion at Montreal apparently.

Gentlemen, it hasn't been there for a while now. I was through there a couple months back on a dealer transfer, and it wasn't there. The F7B, and the H-16-44 weren't there either. Does anyone know where they may be at?

Hello There!

First time with this group.

Does anybody have any information on the whereabouts of the old CP
unit 4104, a Fairbanks Morse "C" Liner passenger engine? It possibly
was retired in the late 60's, perhaps in Calgary or in the Kootenays
somewhere.

A group of us are looking to find out if it was saved, and where.

Thanks for any help,

TAPMAN
