Unity SK, April 1982
Author: MrGrumpy

Inspired by Fred's excellent pictures from Unity SK, here's a few I took in the same area back in April, 1982.

1) A pair of GP9's pass under CP's Hardisty Sub with an eastbound train.
2) The tail end of the same train, taken from the CP bridge embankment.
3) A few miles to the east, the eastbound Panorama nears the town of Unity.

Beautiful stuff Mr. Grumpy! This wouldn't be 1980 though, as Via was still running the full length Super Continental then. The 2 car Via train seen here was started in November 1981.

You're quite right - should be April 1982, can't read my own writing.

Would that be the old trains #109 - #110 - Winnipeg - Regina - Saskatoon - Edmonton train that ran back then? Fred
