CP GP9 8516 heading westward into the setting sun with a short train in tow. Probably going back to Medicine Hat. It is a shame the glare of the sun blots out the namesign.  This old locomotive was around until very recently, albeit incognito, as CP 8250, which it became in 1997, after some years as 1572 after going thru CP rebuild program in the late 1980s.  Now it has gone to Larry's Truck & Electric. Some never die.
