Tuesday Feb 28/06

Popped up before work this morning and lucked out to get both NS trains

Switching in the yard was CN 7039

Sitting in Track BA51 was CN 9590, not sure if it was set-off by the SOR for CN to take back or set-off by CN for the SOR.

Took a couple of shots of the 9590 as it was a good faded unit if Matt is still in need of some shots like this for his model railroad project.
