    Posting this from bed as my toddler decided I was looking to healthy in the new year and so passed on a stomach bug
    So no picture from me today. Hoppefully, you all can cheer me up with some excellent pictures.

    SD40-2 and friends in Stratford, Ontario. The wife waited patiently in the car while I ran around soaking up the scene as much as I could.

    Nice shots so far. Cool to see the servicing in progress and some of the oldies. And mothers tend to have a lot of patience for these things...

    It is or was a former Virginia Railway Express GP40-2H. I have no idea what company "MVPX" represents.

    It looks pretty cool. Unusual to see a GP40 with flared radiators.

    True. As I recall what I'd read, the unit had some rebuilding.
