GOLDEN-ARM wrote:Yeah, and besides, exactly WHERE is that Carter Railway at anyways, since you mentioned it?The Cartier Railway runs on 416 km of track between Port Cartier on the St Lawrence River and the iron ore mine at Mont-Wright in northern Quebec. By the way, the Trackside Guide shows 2 RS-18s and 7 M-636s still rostered. All M-636s "rebuilt with GE 251PLUS kits including PLC microprocessor control". An odd note for the "Guide".

My guess is that they're doing it in pieces and the long hood would be painted soon. The cab looked pretty good in armour yellow!actually the paintjob is complete, there were some photos of the unit over on the Trainorders.com Western RR board a few days ago. It really looks sharp in its fresh UP paint, silver trucks and all.
