A visitor from the "Great White North"

Unread post by slwapprslw »

Although it's not unusual to get CN units on the Chicago Line, they usually pass through as quickly as they arrive. Here are the pictures of the strange duo sitting in the siding at Archbold, OH. They are: CN 2117 (C40-8) and NS 5318 (GP38-2). These two units make for a unique combination of power and railroads. Also, in the last picture, a hot intermodal passes by the strange duo in the siding.

Here's a question to be asked: Could this be 39E? I didn't catch the symbol when this arrived last night.

Nice shots, love the crystal clear air on a sunny day with snow. My favorite is the one showing the bright CN red beside the weathered feed barn....I love old barns and advertising....awesome!
