Yard grab
Title:  Yard grab
Description:  I was able to get a grab shot off the train as we passed the yard in St John. Alcos in the house-an RS 23 and a C424. The RS 23's were common, and held down a variety of local and yard assignments. Some would get assigned to the D&H when CP took over the following year.

Steam heat car
Title:  Steam heat car
Description:  CP had been out of the passenger business for a few years when I took this shot. I suspect this car was left for dead by then, as there would have been no real use for it. Still, a nice catch.
