An interesting collection of diesel power congregates at CP Rail's Agincourt (Toronto) Yard diesel shop, a gathering that otherwise would not be found together at any other time or place: CP H16-44 8715, one of the two CLC H-Liners assigned to the Speno railgrinding train (the fleet normally lived in the west, and almost never travelled this far east). A CP "Big M" M636 4717. Toronto, Hamilton & Buffalo GP7 74 visiting with at least one other TH&B Geep. Erie Lackawanna SD45 3628 and a sister '45, probably off a detouring EL train due to Hurricane Agnes, and in the corner is likely a pair of CP 7400-series SW9 switcher units assigned yard and hump duties.
