Only have to keep the SP style cabs on the SP style shells. The rest don't matter.

Nice of them to paint the reporting mark large and clear.
I used to work for the CEMR, we only had GP9’s at the time.
That train was just south of my old house, I missed it somehow.
I used to have a transfer caboose exactly like the one tacked next to the cando, wish I had kept it now.

Jerome,
Did you ever get around to doing a SW10 unit? aka hammer head?

Ex CN #1401. A very recent repaint. RRpicturearchives.net is still showing it in CN livery on the 19th July. They have 2 of these GMD1's on the roster. The other is #1010, also ex CN, #1435.

They do have a couple of SW's, Jerome, if you feel like going north (but not as far as Alaska). This one a GP1200RS, #1005, ex CP. The photo is from December '06, nothing newer.
And #1006, photo July '19, Says it's on the deadline
#1309 in May '06, looking very nice.

That Logo might be a bit hard.

Found one of SW1200RS #1004, after rebuild. The family resemblances of the front and cab rear roofs of all these, would suggest that the London, Ontario, EMD workshops, had a hand in all of them.
I reckon the livery on #1002, looks the best. The name of the company is Cando Contracting Ltd, so it may be that the liveries have been modified to differentiate between long time leasers.

That is the cleanest caboose I have ever seen. I like the colors on it too.

Rick, where do I find them?? I need a set or 2. Then I can have some Northern neighbors in the yard.
The caboose was part of a CN Family day train in Sept '17. It originally too was in those CEMR colors.
