I had been staking this spot out for a few weeks, waiting for the sumacs to glow and the leaves to change and of course, something other than the usual dirty CP leader. Today, most of it came to be. Our friends at CP finally put SD70ACu, heritage engine CP 7016 on the nose. All decked out in its block lettered paint scheme, the former CP 9140 leads CP 8140 out of Campbellville south down the Hamilton sub on its way for a stop at Kinnear Yard. Even the sun gods aided as the clouds parted just before its arrival.
