Rare widecab |
Description: |
SOO had five SD60Ms, which occasionally made their way to the east. It was always good to see them, especially in the lead, which was unusual. Got lucky this day, as 164 rolls through Bevier St with not only the SOO widecab, but a WC unit as well. The irony is that WC was a SOO predecessor, but is now part of the CN system. |

Westbound |
