    Another one of those runs I missed due to work. Such a great experience to view this locomotive when I was able. Good Show, Peter.

    Those runs were one of the best things CN ever did. I rode it Gravenhurst and back in the fall of maybe 1978. No diesel support either!. Searching for the pictures.I wonder how 110 prints scan?!

    Dave: I snuck one example of a “110″ product to this site but that was about it. They just don’t scan well enough and the sharpness is elusive. So many of us started off in the hobby with this format. If we only had known……

    Thanks for your comments Arnold, Dave and JP. I have to agree… CN very successfully used 6060 as a public relations ambassador. That locomotive forged many positive memories for those fortunate to ride or witness her. Kudos to the CN Management and Operations team for a job well done!

    Was this a CN or VIA operation? Or both?

    Specifically the scheduled steam to Niagara Falls :)

    If you have to put a Diesel in the mix, do it with class. Nice shot!
