A wave from the conductor as the daily way freight passes by on the Geco sub, running up to GM's Scarborough Van Plant. The middle unit is 7100, one of CN homebuilt SW1200RM's. Although the Geco sub still exists, this track, these locos and the GM plant are all gone. Hope the crew are still with us.

    Looks like that unit is fresh from wreck repair in this pic

    Nice set of power on that turn, Tony! I recall the one time I saw this turn; they came in via the Uxbridge Sub, performed their set out and lift, and headed back to the Don via the Kingston Sub connection (Geco). The M420 – GP40 (93**) power set was nice, but not as exotic as the one depicted here.
