CN Unit in Oakland
Author: neilgross

Hello,

I saw CN 5438 (I think that was the number) in the West Oakland diesel shop this morning. It is a draper-taper unit in the old white stripe scheme. The unit is by the sand towers on the east end (in Cal-P terminology) or north end (Coast terminology), front uncoupled. The unit can be seen perfectly from BART.

That is the second one I know of making it to the west coast. There was one last month as well sitting in Oakland. Cheers.
Mr. C.

I posted a note about sighting this same unit without bothering to see if anyone else had. Sorry.
