CP 498 with a surprise |
| Description: |
After I shot from the close angle, I decided to head to the other side of Warner Rd. to get a more broadside shot. I switched up the settings and I believe yielded much better results. |

And as a disclaimer I can vouch for the date. Not a very 2010ish consist I know, but this is even more insane for one reason. The middle unit, CITX SD40-2 3100, is for some reason running. Every other CITX/CEFX unit that the CP leased in late 2008 is stored, but this one! |

| Description: |
The probability of shooting a lease SD40-2 on a Class One today is virtually 0%. It would be impossible if not for this engine here, somehow escaping storage under its new CIT reporting marks. My head spins sometimes! |
