Comments on: The chase is on in this photo. Grabbing a couple more shots of this consist before the highway crosses the tracks and the sun will be on the wrong side. Photo taken north of Egremont at 8:30. http://www.railpictures.ca The BEST Canadian photos on the Internet, eh? Sat, 16 May 2026 10:13:16 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1 By: A. J.

The only time units would not be running was when they deadheaded a crew north. The deadheaded crews units would be just idling behind the lead units. With 2 cabs on the tail end. Sending a cabhop was more common than the deadheaded crew scenario. You could guess that there was going to be a good chance of catching a cabhop, as they would send a couple of large trains of empties north. Help would be needed to get them all back home. That b unit is a tricky one, rather than starting the pattern with a black stripe. They started with white. Thanks Terry. I hear the whinny of Zebra’s :-) . You bet they are all in unison.

I bet they are all online. No Power Control aka Diesel Doctor telling the crew what to shut down. Wow, and all striped up correctly, the weathered van adds to the photo. I bet they are all online.
