CN 2448
Title:  CN 2448
Description:  Train 562, now with only three tank cars after dropping most of its consist at CN Southern Yard, heads west on the CP Hamilton Subdivision, on the approach to the Welland Canal tunnel. And...is there any wonder why I love these locomotives. Totally unique is the 'Draper Taper' car body design, which stands out among today's big GE and EMD freight diesels.
