SLR 3035 - SLR 3803 - SLR 803 were outside the shop, possibly 393's power.That would appear to be right, since I caught those same units at the head of 394 this afternoon, and followed the train again from Sherbrooke to near Compton (I can't remember the last time I happened to catch 394 two days in a row). They had about 64 cars today, which brought the units down to a slow but respectable 15 mph or so on the Waterville, QC grade. The last car on 394 (an EEC boxcar) featured the most spectacular "artwork" I've ever seen on a freight car.

However I have also seen them at Turner's Island in South Portland but I don't know if they load or unload there.

Never really paid attention to see if what loads going up, and empties coming back, but someone takes them up that way. I've also seen them at NMJ on the CMQ, so that's another possible source.fogg1703 wrote:Great video thanks for posting. Curious where the 10 loaded AIMX scrap cars came from? Grimmels?Thanks!
