Nice capture of those once busy days at Niagara Falls.
The machine in front of CN 4127 is CN 50986 (Work Equipment CN 811-08) Jordan Roadmaster 2-150M spreader, serial number 1126, built in 1952.
It is equipped with a center cab, medium front blade, straight side wings, low rear platform, and air operated cylinders.

Cyanamid in the background…hard to believe how large a facility it was… Niagara Falls before it was largely a tourist destination…a gritty industrial town, and a major railway town dating back to the 1850’s

Great scene. Just as how I remember it back in the 90′s. Neat they had the Jordan spreader there too.
