Perhaps a "caption this" somebody has a wedgie. BCOL 755 was lead unit involved in a head on collision the day before, fortunately the crew suffered no serious injuries. The 755 did suffer and was "retired" with various parts sent to GMDL to defray costs of replacing the unit. The 606, MLW RS18 that wedged the 755 was returned to service after extensive repairs. see link to image of the 606 http://www.railpictures.ca/upload/well-this-is-sort-of-a-caption-this-it-was-a-bad-day-for-trains-due-to-a-mix-up-in-a-meeting-point-the-north-bound-james-switcher-and-a-south-bound-work-train-collided-luck-was-with-the-crews
