CN train #573 is seen here switching the Louisiana Pacific mill on the former BC Rail track in Dawson Creek BC. Bridge issues left customers in Dawson Creek cut off from the rest of CN for several weeks. In an interesting turn of events CN borrowed this GP7u from the LouisDreyfus grain elevator in order to switch customers who had cars waiting in Dawson Creek yard. LDCX 2015 is named "Mighty Peace" and began life as an ATSF GP7B in 1953.
