Grain trains from Canada often go by the Bonneville Navlocks headed west and North. Bonneville Navlocks are in the Columbia River gorge on the south side smack dab right next to the U.P.'s main East of Portland,Or.

It probably came out of Canada on a grain train such as GSETTA. CP units are very common on trains through the Eastport gateway, in fact I just saw three CP AC4400's on a northbound grain empty a hour ago.

That would be my photo. CEFX 106/CP 9578/CP 9146/CP 9628 on a southbound lite power move to Tacoma on 6-29-01 leaving Argo yard in Seattle. Ted is probably right about it having come north on a grain shuttle.
