Comments on: The 0700 Yard Job has set out on the north track of the Grimsby Sub, to clear the main at Mile 41. Cars in tow are for MANA, Stelco and Parkland Fuels.

CN donated one to Waterloo Central Railway. I believe they are looking to get it ready for the 2022 tourist season.

Are there any GMD1′s still left on the road?

@ Carson, I have got countless shots of 1439 leading around here so am quite content with 7038. If anything, a beltpack-free GP9 on the yard jobs is more rare in Hamilton than a GMD-1.

@ Brundle, couldn’t agree more!

@ Aitch, thank you! MANA is fairly steady. Allied did some track work there in the past year or so and added back track that had previously been removed. Discussed a bit in the caption and comments here: http://www.railpictures.ca/?attachment_id=44215

Bravo ! That’s such a clean image ! It seems like MANA is making a success of their former Stelco assets.

Are industrial scenes are changing, and by far, I prefer this look. When you’re track side it sounds right too.

Nice shot, debatable if the GP9RM or the GMD1 is the nicer leader.
