Canadian Railroads > Miserable Alberta Monday's-Gone But Not Forgotten on Dec 21-75

Relegated to pull down service at Alyth's hump yard, "Trainmasters" hardly seems appropriate to describe these two remaining examples from a once great fleet. Its the shortest day of the year in 1975 and cold as hell with both frost and road grime covering 8904 & 8905. The "05" was preserved and now resides at St. Constance Quebec's EXPORAIL. Richard Yaremko

Nice, Richard.  We don't see enough Trainmasters here.  Or F-Ms in general, for that matter.

And this is the ONLY one preserved!

Great shot BTW Richard.

Shortest day - best angle for truck lighting. Love the first piece of rolling stock, too.
