As I'm posting this, I realized that this picture was taken just a bit over five years ago. Take a look at that power, you will never see another lashup like that on the CN anymore. However, five years ago when I took this, this was a very common lashup. How things change over time. |

Soo Rock Job |
| Description: |
The Soo rock job crosses over old highway 8 in New Brighton. I believe that the lead SD60 is the 6037, not 100% sure though. |

WC 6614 |
| Description: |
A nice lashup, that by todays standard would probably make you keel over, waits at New Brighton under morning clouds. The trailing units were WC 7585, IC 6071, and WC 2005. All are now retired or scrapped except for the 2005. I swear this must have been 400 speed film...... Date Approx, photo scanned. |
