| Description: |
CP Rail S2 7076 works near the Vancouver waterfront in July 1977. According to X2200S, this was the second AlCo-design unit built by MLW, being delivered in Nov 1948; it was retired in 1984. The brick building behind it is certainly impressive. |

CP GP30 |
| Description: |
There were only two GP30s built in Canada and CP kept both of them in British Columbia during the late '80s. They were frequently seen on the daily train to interchange with the BN at Sumas, WA/Huntingdon BC. The branch left the CP main at Mission; here the train is headed back for Vancouver behind GP30 5001 and a pair of GP35s. |
