Wow, awesome catches!

[@csxketh1]

@NscaleAmtrak Thats a road slug. Pretty much everything internal has been removed except for the traction motors (and interior, horn, bells, lights, etc.). I believed they either filled the unit with concrete, or loaded it down with ballast for weight. All of the radiator fans (except for the dyanamic fan) have been removed, and the doors on the side of the unit have been removed as well.

Wow, I haven't seen canadian power there in a while. I also remember there being quite a few U-boats, but I'm not sure if those are there anymore

Very nice, i went to Selkirk last Wednesday and saw a ton of power, and foreign power as well but no CN, or CP! Great catches, about how long did you stay for? Because thats alot of action that you saw.
