Nice sunny mid-afternoon. Not sure of this train number; but guessing it is the "pulp train" on account a quartet of GP9s for power; and they were based at Fort Erie or Niagara Falls for the most part back then. Lashup makes for a nice scene; CN 4565, 4495, 4527 and 4571 are the numbers. Autos in scene......my old blue Cougar, next to it (the late) Bill McArthurs chev wagon; and the little green heap I have no info on.

    Little green heap is right, it looks like one of those aluminum block Vegas that lasted about 5 minutes on the road before starting to burn oil. :-)
    I love the consist, zebras leading with noses forward, noodles trailing with noses aimed to the rear.
