Canadian National Railways (CN) 9512 - EMD GP40-2LW

This HR 616 leads 102 cars west through Dorval in the company of a couple of GP40-2LWs. The HR 616 was a Bombardier engine produced at the same time as the M420s, and was intended to revive the Alco design in the railroad industry. It didnt work out so well, and only a few were built, all for CN.
