Railpictures.ca - William Rolston Photo: When I got the report that IC 1029 was leading CN M369 out of Montreal I almost couldn’t believe it. This is one of only a handful of Illinois Central SD70′s still left in the original paint. It left in the late afternoon so I had to wait a couple hours for it to be shootable stopped in the Belleville via station for a crew change. What makes this more interesting is that it made the trip from Montreal to Toronto all without the use of a horn. In fact we’re thinking it was stolen when this unit was previously in the states. | Railpictures.ca – Canadian Railway Photography
