  1. Very good picture Jacob, very colourful and nice to see a caboose in good repair and nicely painted. Where was the transformer repaired and by whom ? Thanks, John

  2. I understand that this transformer is a dud. They bought four,two were good and this one is going back to China and they don’t want it back.

  3. Nice catch Jacob.

  4. I think at this point they were running as a yard extra out of Hamilton (no longer L351). 4130 was down the hole solo later in the day doing work of typical yard jobs, and calling RTC as something like 1055 Yard Extra (or something obscure like that – I don’t fully recall the time they were using).
