A decidedly "un-Canadian" scene.  Yet this is in Fort Erie down the yard toward CN Duff; as departing trio of Conrail GP38s, 7936, 7939 and 7937 heading toward the International Bridge happen by the NS transfer which has just arrived behind NS 8558 and 8619.  The C39-8 I always considered looked like some sort of ugly beast, and I have heard the crews didn't think a whole lot of them either. Total of 161 built (years 1984-1987), on NS at least they are all retired.
