Comments on: With Essex Terminal 108 getting work done at Lambton Diesel in Sarnia, LDSX 4620 GP9R works the 0630 Job switching Ojibway Yard in west Windsor. I don’t know if the 4620 is on loan or on lease. Will the 108 return in new paint? Time will tell.

When the PDI Yard is done in east Thorold, which is to be 4 track transload on the old Georgia Pacific property, they will need the other unit. The other ex-IC switcher # 1406 I believe is also to come to Welland I’m told by a guy in the GIO billing office I Know!

1597 is headed there to assist 4100. I don’t think they’ll need a third unit unless one of these will go back again.

4620 is to go to GIO in Welland at some point.
Most likely the HOPA transload yard at the old Hayes Dana plant at Thorold east!

On loan. First to work out bugs of rebuild also to cover for 108 going away.

It will go to GIO eventually.

Will be interesting to see what 108 emerges in.
