@busrailfan Thanks, I always get a kick out seeing some out of the ordinary trains.

8939 was sitting in Edmonton this afternoon . there seems to be a decal added near the front though

@awstott Thanks for the response, it is always nice to know where these diesels end up going to.

Nice catch. I can't find myself a Canadian Track Side Guide 2011 since most are sold out.

[rolpolold]

@DieselSmoke92 Thanks. Sorry to hear about the 2011 Trackside guide being sold out, it is an amazing reference guide that is full of great info, hope you find one, I highly recommend it.

@rolpolold Thanks, thats what i've heard from other railfanners. Maybe if you know stuff about scanners you can help me buy one to.

[rolpolold]

@DieselSmoke92 I bought a scanner on ebay but never got it, lance campeau has a video on youtube which may be helpful.

[DieselSmoke92]

@rolpolold Yeah it didn't help me out to much. I need a good basic tutorial on how to use scanners.

Wow that's a nice Thanksgiving present...fantastic catch....wonder how big is the box for one of them.. :)

[rolpolold]

@Lafondue Thanks, I bought a Lionel Vision line ES44AC a while back and it is cool to see them in real life looking exactly the same. As far as the box is concerned, it must be as big as a mobile home full of foam peanuts :)

@rolpolold hope to see a video of the Lionel version
