I've seen most of it on the 38e, i hae pictures of the CR, CSX, BNSF, ATSF, CN, wheeling and lake Erie, KCS, and many leasing companies. But for some reason I've never seen CP :lol:

I remember when we had B56, got geeps a lot, 38e seems to see more wide cabs

About 35 min ago CP640 was clearing 407 east of Goshen with SOO 6035 leading a CP SD40-2, ICE SD40-2, and a SOO SD60M. Couldnt get a placard number to tell if it was ethanol or crude oil.
