Comments on: Back when the Red Barns were preferred power! CP 9001 West crosses over the Ottertail River with a long unit sulphur train. Scanned from an old print.

The SD40-2′s where the workhorses of the CP. They are and always will be my favorite all time engine, and CP Rail my favorite altime Railway.

I feel guilty now, recalling my ‘disinterest’ in all things SD40-2…..everywhere I looked there were more of the same….. Red Barns were a bit special though, and seeing this beautiful image brings back memories of them running on the supposed STLH trackage in New York State.

CP in the 90′s: SD40-2′s and bathtub gons on coal trains. Whoda thunk we’d be missing this years later.
