Coaxed some SD70ACUs out of hiding |
Description: |
It's one year and a day after I caught my first of CP's SD70ACUs leading a train (coincidentally, it was 7010, the trailing unit here). After they became quite common as leaders on this line last summer, they've largely disappeared since the start of the new year due to new PTC requirements and their ongoing issues with the software. This is train 681, sand empties bound for the Smart Sand plant at Oakdale. |

The late winter golden light kisses the treetops and the water tower, but unfortunately largely misses the locomotives crossing County N. |
