Canadian Railroads > Freight Car Friday - Armoured Cars on 89' Flat, CalgaryDate: 04/05/24 20:26 Freight Car Friday - Armoured Cars on 89' Flat, Calgary Author: feclark On one of my frequent lunchtime visits to CP's industrial yard in downtown Calgary, I shot this 89' flat, CPAA 570027, with four armoured cars on it. The date was May 27, 1981. I have hope and confidence someone can identify a make/model for these vehicles. The turret on the distant one seems to be different.
