The 0700 has called the RTC for a light of the "hole" and is proceeding "west" toward Hamilton yard with a fairly untouched GP38-2 standard cab leading, original bell and all. A truck heading to GFL Environmental is about to pull in. I worked for Philip Services in the summer of '98 who did metals and environmental cleanup and they are everywhere in the north end of Hamilton to this day, but philip services, which once had about 20 facilities in Hamilton alone is not to be found.

    Can’t resist linking these 2 up. The 5516 from 1986 and pretty fresh from being painted into stripes. 35 years later, the 4716 is still looking darn good. :-)
