1998 was probably one of my least liked Railfaning years. The beginning of the year would claim the surviving Alco/MLW/ BBD’s on both CN and CP. A trip down to Mimico in February would tell the tale as CN stored numerous M420’s and HR616’s there, pending disposition. More units were located behind me in the west end of the VIA yard.

    Interesting that the crossing sign is bilingual.

    I’m guessing it was a VIA thing

    I remember this and shot them from the bridge here too. As I recall they were gathered-up fairly quickly and sent here.
