Comments on: Looking more like a granger, surrounded by fertile farmers fields and elevators in the background. CN 568 storms westward out of the dip at Shakespeare after serving a local elevator. The sight of two GP40′s working together on a local in 2021 is not such a common sight, so very much welcomed this day. The train has been well delay this day by track work west of Kitchener so will need a fresh crew before departing Stratford for Kitchener. http://www.railpictures.ca The BEST Canadian photos on the Internet, eh?

Well, if the 7600/7601 are any indication, the 38's will become 40's in due time, if they decide to order more :) Wild.

We were told by a railfan they departed close to 1om but rail replacement delayed everything that day forcing a crew change in Stratford around 19:90 Agreed that CN GP40′s are definitely not rare but their numbers have certainly shrunk significantly over the years.

Shot 'em on 554, on tonnes of locals in Sarnia, a few on the Guelph sub have had 'em over the years including ex GO, and Hamilton's even had a few. Even in pairs.. Sarnia had a pair in CNNA paint for the longest time. What time did they depart Kitchener Marcus? This is a nice shot, but GP40′s on locals are not that hard to get.
