With a BNSF in ATSF paint reported on 135 the day before I had a hunch there is a chance it may lead 134 in the morning. So I beelined to Guelph Junction in the morning crossing my fingers, but it had some CP power tacked to the front. But after it passed I caught this power move on GEXR as 2111 was lifted in order to take it to the CN interchange, where it was sent to Goderich for repair. You can see at far left 3800/800 which is also out of service, making for a brief but busy motive power situation at Guelph Junction. I love days when something good happens that you least expected, and I was pleased that the power fit perfectly between that pole and the Guelph Jct sign :) This was a rare Saturday extra also.

  1. Nice catch Steve. So much oil on
    2111!

  2. This looks almost unrecognizable compared to the last time I was there, I’m guessing what was left of 1116 is all gone now too?

  3. Yes, 1116 was scrapped in 2019
