Caption: Ontario Northland FP7ACat #2000 leads the northbound "Northlander" out of North Bay, on a clear June day in 1995. This F-unit had been recently rebuilt from FP7A #1502- the original GMD motor was replaced with a Caterpillar prime mover, which proved to be more cantankerous than originally hoped for. Two other FP7s would undergo the rebuild program and although they looked great, they did not remain in service past the early 2000s. The overhaul program was very in-depth and included a complete overhaul of the engine and electrical systems, as well as installation of desktop controls. It's a shame the ONR didn't opt to just keep the original GMD prime mover as their GP9s that shared the same platform are still in use as of this posting.
