One of the sharpest looking GP9s I've ever seen. Great paint. The slanted numbers really enhance the sleek look. Waiting for its next assignment at Orangeville Station. |

Two vanquished switchers have joined other locomotives awaiting scrapping at Welland metal recycling facility. Illinois Central #1506 is even older than me! Built in 1952. CN Geep #4100 is no slouch either, built in 1958. |

| Description: |
Way at the back of the deadline is former STELCO STEEL Switcher #615 - originally built in 1951; painstakingly rebuilt in 2021 to work this yard switching metal pipe rack cars. Apparently, it didn't last long. Check out my March 2021 album for pics when #615 first emerged from the shop after rebuilding. Purring like a kitten. http://barney_rebel.rrpicturearchives.net/archiveThumbs.aspx?id=141987 |

Catch of the day. I love these old GP9s that appear every once and a while on a CN ereighter, still putting in a full day's work. I suppose in 50 or 100 years people will be looking at these the same way we view steam locomotives today. This beauty rolled off the line in 1957. |
