Nice images. What an odd combination of locomotives and paint schemes.I suppose it could be called two fallen flags soldiering on.  Doug

Great shots! Looks like a good day to be out. Sorry to see the 4607 has lost it's cornering lights. The red on the Draper taper unit is fading like CP Rail action red.

Yesterday I saw a reroute here in Moose Jaw coal empty with 3 BNSF units with CP leading unable to get numbers of BNSF units

Some neat pictures there.  Who'd have thought that you would ever find the ghosts of two now defunct
railroads running together on CN in the middle of B.C.?  Bit of a rarity I'd think...
