Comments on: Going back to 1985, a DT&I GP40-2 trails 2 CN GP40-2′s on 238′s light power coming into the yard. They had dropped their train from Chicago at BIT, and were almost done. Foreign power of any kind in those days was extremely rare.

I remember scanning that one Bruce, and here it is, 6418 with its GT patch.

I might have a slide of 6418 taken around Burlington. Might be on RPC also.

Yep. Saw them occasionally on the Laser, but it was almost impossible to get a clean shot like this one.

Neat. 238 was one of the trains (Laser) the frequently had DTI or GTW power wasn’t it?
