Here is an oldie...we left for a day of railfanning in Calgary and caught this NB freight just outside Wetaskiwin. I was in the back seat of a two door car and the guys in front bailed and left the car rolling. I eventually extricated myself and got this picture. Back in those days, geeps were the normal power on Calgary / Edmonton trains.
