Passenger power
Title:  Passenger power
Description:  I doubt at the date of this photo in 1982 this unit still saw any passenger action. The CNW had gone HEP long before when they equipped their commuter trains with bi levels. This rebuilt GP 9 still has its commuter lighting compartment, a reminder of its earlier life.
