I created this pic MANY MANY years ago, back when most of us were all on the Zealot forum, WOW, A blast from the past
. ANYWAYS, I seen this in my files and thought I would bring it back this year, probably from 12-15? years ago.
Merry Christmas!

It's December 24/1958 and CN 421 is almost home as it passes the Leanne Station and heads into the Leetown Yard --- it looks like the crews will make it home in time to celebrate Christmas Eve with their families.Special thanks to Charlie for his help to make this photo possible.
Merry Christmas from the Leetown Division.

For me it's always a special treat whenever I see one of Canadian Pacific or Canadian National's "heritage units".This year the Leetown Division decided to create a special locomotive of their own---U2C Northern 6153 made her premier appearance on the head end of the Leetown employee's Christmas Special---here she is during a photo session in the yard.Rumour has it that the locomotive was a big hit and management has decided that they will keep this locomotive in it's "heritage" livery.
