GEXR 431 crests the hill at Acton, ON. as a Dodge Ram paces the train on parallel Ontario Highway 7. Some courageous artist(s) (or vandals depending what side of the spectrum you're on) painted "SP" on the nose of 3054 the night before; partially restoring/preserving the unit's previous history. With only four more days before this section of GEXR's operations are taken over by CN (as of this upload), many will be flocking to get a glimpse of an SP tunnel motor in Southern Ontario before another chapter in Ontario rail history closes.
Taking a look at the same train and scene as captured by different photographers. The best way to view will be to sort by photo date so the photos are grouped together.
The EMD SD (special duty) series are a strong and reliable kind of locomotive which still serve America's rails today. They have proved themselves reliable by clocking in several million miles of freight service over several decades.
