Comments on: Another CN oddity. CN 4990, with no CN markings and BNSF still fully visible on the nose, leads CN 583 crossing over at Paris West to gain access to the north service track and Paris Yard. CN 583 is a turn job from London to Paris and return, switching industries in Ingersoll, Woodstock, and Princeton along the way. I’d love to know how CN 4990 got released for service in it’s current appearance; the shop must have ran out of spray paint.

Which locomotives are coming over Dano?

An ex-GP35 too, a model CN long purged from its own roster. Word is, there’s more BNSF GP38-2’s expected in the empty 4962-4989 series.

Nice capture.
