GM SD70M demo units at Port Hope ON
Author: newtonville150

July 1993, an eastbound CN freight comes to a stop at VIA's Port Hope station after having
encountered problems just west of there. A brakeman has caught a ride on a VIA train back
to the head-end. Shortly thereafter the freight train takes off, revealing two SD70M demo
units.

Note that in 1993 there's no graffiti on any of the freight cars. Also the CN-CP transfer
track is still in place, but not the transfer yard.

Hard to top the CN for unusual freight cars. Thanks for sharing.
