Comments on: A northbound work train led by GP9 5138 and a singular railcar crosses Route 138, the only public railroad crossing on the railway. I do not know what is the purpose of the car trailing behind the locomotive, although it seems it was rebuilt from an old 52′ bulkhead flatcar. Moments earlier, a specialy built ambulance equiped with steel wheels and fully functionnal lightbars had just came down the line towards Havre-Saint-Pierre, i wish i had thought of taking a picture of that thing! Although if you want to check it out for yourself, you can search for ”Ambulance ferroviaire” on Google Images, where you should be able to find a picture of it taken from Demers Ambulances website.

Also what’s with the renumbering of the locomotive on the cab?

This is excellent. An under represented railway – always great to see more shots posted here.
