Fresh from the nearby GMDD facility, Union Pacific SD90MAC-H 8506 awaits pick-up at Canadian Pacific's Quebec Street yard. At the time, this photo was taken with permission as on this day, CP had held an open house by the yard office to officially unveil their new heritage beaver shield scheme on freshly repainted GP38-2 3069.

  1. I think every railfan in Southern Ontario has a roster shot of UP 8506 taken that day. I’ve got a slide that looks just like this shot! There was lots of cool stuff in the yard that day, I recall on of the ex. NS high hood SD40-2s was there too.

  2. I think you are right about that day Rob. I remember having to get photos of the units in between rushes of people walking around. Yes, I remember the former NS SD40-2 and CP 5646 was there too with the low “CP” on the nose.
