Railpictures.ca - L. Priest Photo: GMTX 335 and CANAC 1330 are 2 of 3 units sitting out front of the AltaSteel Mill. It was very tempting to pass through the open gate and get all 3 units in one photo. Best not to trespass and there is a large tree immediately in front of the 7402, which will have presented a photo angle problem. The SW1500 335 certainly appears to be a sister unit to the 333 that is photo’d in southern Ontario occasionally. There is no mistaking the heritage of the CANAC engine. It is still wearing the 1330 unit number assigned by CN. The most obvious change is the removal of the spark arrestors. | Railpictures.ca – Canadian Railway Photography

Sorry, my mistake. The 335 is not an SW1500, with those rads, it is an MP15AC.
