Nice sunny day down in St. Catharines, where the new kid on the Trillium block, GMTX 223 made its first (and perhaps only) run to the city's industrial area to work WP Warehousing and Canadian Erectors. Here is a shot of the unit, looking nice and spiffy in fresh paint, as it works at the steel facility on Eastchester Av. I'm told the unit may be shipped out in a week or so and replaced. So this might be a rare scene.

    I’m gonna keep my eyes open both days. Apparently GATX is supposed to be replacing this one with a MP15AC.

    Wow! I have the day off tomorrow. I’m definitely going to try and catch him. Though If I cant, I’m going to CN Robbins on Saturday.
