| Title: |
Bandit patch |
| Description: |
Despite CP running quite a few SOO units on the D&H once they got a few years into their takeover, there were relatively few of the ex MILW "bandit patch" engines seen here. This one has been sold to Helm, and is southbound on a 261 at BX. Today's train has 10 stack platforms and 51 TOFC. |
