Comments on: All but a couple of HBR’s new 6000 series locomotives are parked at their locomotive facility in The Pas, MB on this cold March morning. Units I was able to see and/or photograph at the shop and yard were HBRY 824, 3001 (ex-CN 9438), 3002 (ex-CN 9465), 3003 (ex-CN 9478), 3078, 5000, 5004, 5005, 5007, 6001, 6004, 6005, 6008, 6009, 6011, and HLCX 3840. A GREX DumpTrain (GREX 2400) was also spotted. There were two complete GREX trains in Churchill when I was there last August so the second train is likely somewhere in the yard out of sight. What an interesting facility to visit! :-)

The HBR locomotive roster shows HBRY 6001 as ex-UP 2384, nee-UP 6225, built October 1990.

I agree with John, this is a beautiful and eye catching paint scheme! Nice capture Paul. – Ken

Paul, very nice paint scheme, like the blue and grey with white striping. The HBR polar bear logo reminds me of the ONR logo that used to be on ONR F units assigned to the Polar Bear Express. Logo also similar to the former Algoma Central black bear logo. Thanks for posting, John
