Great job!! Anyone know if these loco's came out of the GM diesel plant at London? The facility there is quite impressive. My son and i delivered a set of loco shells that came from Boise, Id. I wish we could still get in on that work. Cheers and love to see your extra cool vids of BC. The trains on the island are a treat, both steam and diesel!!!
Thanks for your comments. Glad you are enjoying the videos.
Actually, those locomotives are Erie built (1990) GE's (DASH 8-40CM). I suspect you are confusing them with Canadian Pacific's wide car body GMs that were built in London.
What truly beautiful country out there . Nature & trains go well with each other.

@Weiberts Yes, the speeder, a case of being in the right place at the right time. June 9, 1990. Thanks for your comment.

@Shaysteamjamb I think Canadian Pacific did have SD40-2 Red Barns numbered in the 9000 series.

It's a shame the Dash 8's are going to retired over the next few years.

I had the 4619 leading not too long ago, not nearly as nice as then.
