Comments on: CN people are working with crane CN 50000 to get MLW RSC-14 CN 1784 back on track after a derailment in Halifax. The RSC-14′s were RS-18′s re-trucked by CN to spread their weight across six axles, for branch lines with light rail in the Maritime provinces. The A1A trucks were taken from retired RSC-13′s and RSC-24′s which previously served that assignment. RSC-14′s were derated from RS18 original 1800 HP to 1400 HP, probably the safe limit for the A1A traction motors. Location within Halifax is unstated, mapped to vicinity of Fairview. http://www.railpictures.ca The BEST Canadian photos on the Internet, eh?
