Comments on: Doug Courtney provides us with this image of INCO’s GE Center Cab outside the company gates, along Durham St near the weigh scale location. The CN NICKEL yard is in the background with flat cars being stored. The unit displays the typical INCO Yellow paint scheme of the time period. RAILBOX cars were common sights here, as were Western Maryland Boxcars. The locomotive remains on the property today, and is used infrequently to bring tank cars into the facility. It is the last of the GE Center Cabs in Port Colborne having been on site for over 70 years. http://www.railpictures.ca The BEST Canadian photos on the Internet, eh?
