Canadian Railroads > On this dayDate: 01/08/25 05:11 On this day Author: hoggerdoug A few images taken January 8, 2005 at the BC Rail, Prince George shops. It was a bitterly cold afternoon.
CN 1409, used in yard service, not many left at the time. BCOL 4623 inside the shop view from underneath.    Date: 01/08/25 05:13 Re: On this day Author: hoggerdoug BCOL 4647, our lead unit southbound from Prince George.
A trick with numbers, CN 5647 on the left, BCOL 4647 on the right. BC Rail always ahead of CN. thanks for looking. Doug   Date: 01/08/25 06:51 Re: On this day Author: 3rdswitch Nice.
JB Date: 01/08/25 09:17 Re: On this day Author: TCnR Good stuff from the Northlands.
The impression of the only GMD1 I saw was just a great big steel no-nonsense machine. No soft edges, all business. Probably more so when they are frozen. t4p. Date: 01/08/25 10:42 Re: On this day Author: poshell Enjoying your pics.
Nine years after your shot, I caught CN 1409 at Walker yard Edmonton, AB on November 13, 2014.  Date: 01/08/25 22:28 Re: On this day Author: feclark hoggerdoug Wrote:

Fred Date: 01/09/25 09:35 Re: On this day Author: Ticeska Curious, does CN still have the former BC Rail shop in Prince George open for locomotive repairs? IIRC, CN's former locomotive shop near downtown has been "repurposed" for other uses.
