Comments on: It’s lunchtime at Hagersville as a trio of CN locomotives sit idling near the new Operations trailers. A pair of North American maps and a line of zebra stripes on this power splits the snow covered ground and the clear blue sky nicely on this cold, clear day.

@Brundle, I never had the pleasure of hearing a solid consist of F’s in the eighth notch, but I can totally agree with your take on turbo 645’s ! Music !

@Paul O’Shell, nice shot !

The view from the Coronado Sub.
For me, nothing beats the sound of solid consists of f units hauling, especially up a good grade. But idling, nothing beats the turbo whine of SD or GP40′s on the shop track. The bigger the bunch the better it gets. I’m sure these 3 were pretty tasty.
