"Like a Giant Model Train Shop"         
I had to shoot through the tree branches to get this one: looking northwest at south end of the CN/IC shops area reveals an incredible array of various locomotives (there are probably 50 in this photo) including CN, WC, Alstom, GT, BCOL, DMIR, IC, etc. And this is only a portion of what is currently stored there.

Neil Stutzman General I had to shoot through the trees when I was there in March. Same line-up too. 6/5/2008 6:44:40 PM
Mike Rapchak Jr. General Too bad the trees are there blocing the view! OTOH, seeing a how this is a wooded crest, do you think this is where the name Woodcrest comes from? :) 6/5/2008 7:20:34 PM
William Grimes General BCR is Bay Coast, BCOL is BC Rail 6/16/2008 8:08:52 PM
Mike Rapchak Jr. General Corrected. Note that the designation in this site's road-name category is BCR. 6/16/2008 8:27:26 PM
