F-Unit Friday - Supercontinental Splitting Signals
Author: feclark

On April 15, 1977, CN 6506 is leading #2, the Supercontinental, through the signals at MP 12.9 on the Beachburg Sub. This is immediately west of Moodie Drive in Bells Corners, coming up to Bells Junction. The train is running about 90 minutes late, at 0840. No VIA paint is evident in this photo, which adds to its appeal, although the unposted going-away shot reveals a CN/VIA baggage car behind the unidentified CN F9B and RS18 that were helping out.

This Super Continental most certainly does have a Cape car bringing up the rear, you can see the streamlined kitchen vent protruding from the roof in this view.
