While BC Rail no longer exists as an operating railroad (the BC Government still owns it all, but its all leased to Canadian National), some locomotives still hard at work for Canadian National still carry BC Rail’s colours. Seen here is 4605 leading a CN Manifest freight (I think I heard him calling as Train 570) through Halton Hills Ontario on October 24, 2020.
Great catch! I found a few BC Rail units recently… photograph ’em while you still can.
Those surviving BC Rail engines are a thrill. A few have made it east to work out of Dartmouth and it’s always exciting. More than one day’s schedule has been profoundly changed to suit them.
I’ve seen 4605 twice in the past month (not by plan, just happenstance), but getting it leading was a nice treat!
