Sky blue geeps on the point as CN 540 shoves back around the wye to drop cars in interchange XT99 for GEXR. While I enjoy the vintage power regularly seen on the Guelph Sub these units contrast nicely with the snow.

    Interesting they have 3 glass hoppers on the head end….I wonder why that is

    These GATX/GMTX units are rather common in a lot of areas now, but it sure is a treat to see something other than standard CN and CP out there, and not mainline behemoths, either.

    They always seem to pop better in the winter with snow and always when they are run in pairs or trios. Nice angle Jacob.
