Railpictures.ca - Michael Berry Photo: CN X527 has a pair of GP9′s (CN 7246 & CN 7277) as it heads back to Pointe St-Charles yard with a long string of cars being pulled from the Turcot holding track in the St-Henri neighbourhood of Montreal. The brakeman in the distance will have to take a taxi back to the yard; the train is so long that it will stall if they stop long enough to let him climb aboard the power. | Railpictures.ca – Canadian Railway Photography
