Canadian Pacific Railway (CP) 6064 - EMD SD40-2

Older CP power sits stored away in Saint Paul

But the diesels are red as train 412 rolls south in a dark side view at Hancock Rd.

Train 412, usually an overnight player here, rolls toward the crossing at Fuller Rd behind a set of 40s, two skinny ones and two fat ones holding back its 74 cars.

The Shokopee Turn departs St. Paul Yard.

A light power move heads into the east end of Bensenville yard.

CP 412 was usually an overnight arrival at Binghamton, getting worked there, and heading south in the morning. Sometimes it got delayed. Here we see a late 412 rolling south at Fuller Rd behind a mixed set of 40s, including a pair of Barns.

Still like the Multi-Mark

It's been getting harder and harder to find a Bandit, such as the 2057 here at Bensenville. Get them while you can, 2009 is finally catching up to the Bandits! Many have recently been repainted into CP paint.

The CP-BN transfer rolls into Northtown with the same consist it had on Sunday. It was really nice to see four units together that were all standard cabs.

The last unit in the CP-BN transfer today is another good looking CP SD40-2. If there is anything good about the Soo 60s being stored its that more CP SD40-2s will be around!

The CP-BN works its way into Saint Paul with an awesome lashup. Two GP38-2s and two SD40-2s, only thing that could make it better is if it was all 38-2s or 40-2s.

With many of the Soo 60s going into storage, some of the CPs SD40-2s are getting a second chance at life. This morning two CP SD40-2s bring the HAT transfer towards Humboldt Yard at Main Street. NE.

CP 6064 rests outside of the diesel shop with Soo 1536 and Soo 2041. This is one of the few CP SD40-2s I've seen so far in 2009.

There are only 4 trains a day on this line. You have to be lucky to see one.

CP/D&H #166 with debris cars head-out cruises the Lehigh Line toward Three Bridges. Notice the plow on the 5697 has been cut out to operate on the ex-Conrail Hudson Line.
