Train 148 is one of CN's priority freight trains which passes through Bayview on a regular schedule.Being a first class freight,one would expect to find some of the railroad's finest high performance locomotives as the power for this train.Today's lead locomotive was SD70M-2 8800 together with two other diesels---the third unit really surprised me---GP38-2W 4768.No doubt this locomotive is in excellent mechanical condition but she could sure use a trip to the paint shop---this has to be one of the saddest looking diesels on the CN roster :oops:
