Sunday after lunch at the Calder diesel shop finds this varied display of GMD engines. The west tower job at the right was pulling a string of cars with a bi-level of VW's next to the 1268. Also of interest, I stopped in at the east tower before coming here. Parked in a stub track there were 4 superintendent cars, the 61202,61201,61200 and 70067.

    Did you manage to wander down to city center yard? Maybe check out the CP High Level bridge transfer job?

    Not on this occasion, 2 months earlier on Feb.23/85 I was there, (the above link). The shop track at that time was SW1200rs units only. No small switchers.

    Thanks Terry. :-)

    Thanks Jason. :-)
    The only thing missing are the 38-2′s, they are just out of frame to the left, (5501,5526,5532 and others).
