BCOL RS18C 608
Title:  BCOL RS18C 608
Description:  Retired MLW loco on the CN/IC Homewood shops's deadline. Interesting design here; the rear of the long hood is reminiscent (precursory?) of GE's current "hammerhead" radiator-fan/grille design.

"Like a Giant Model Train Shop"
Title:  "Like a Giant Model Train Shop"
Description:  I had to shoot through the tree branches to get this one: looking northwest at south end of the CN/IC shops area reveals an incredible array of various locomotives (there are probably 50 in this photo) including CN, WC, Alstom, GT, BCOL, DMIR, IC, etc. And this is only a portion of what is currently stored there.
