Canadian Railroads > Heritage in the CanyonDate: 11/04/19 22:15 Heritage in the Canyon Author: cp1400 Canadian Pacific recently unveiled the first of ten heritage painted SD70ACU engines being rebuilt from their stock of long stored SD9043ACs. The rebuild includes new cab, new wiring and lots of extras. The heritage units released are sharp looking I must say. 7010 in the Canadian Pacific script scheme was on the point of train 100 leaving the Vancouver Intermodal Facility in the Vancouver BC area on Saturday Nov 2, 2019.
