Canadian Railroads > Figured you could help identify thisDate: 11/12/20 20:22 Figured you could help identify this Author: misty1 I never saw one of these before and was hoping someone could give me some info as to time period and locations that they may have been used or maybe some pics in use. The number on this one is CNRU230571. Any information on it will be appreciated. The unit is sitting in Wilton Iowa. Thanks to my neighbors to the North.

I shot a few over the next couple of years, then obviously didn't feel the need to do it again to add to the Kodachromes I had of these.
