| A view of 4508 and 4509 lead end at St. Thomas, Ont. Cyril Butcher photo from the Larry Broadbent collection. |
This months snapshot came to me from my friend Andy. This photo I think was taken in the early 1970's at the yard office in St. Thomas, Ont. At that time the yard office housed N&W crew clerk, agent and crew office for both CN and N&W crews. What is interesting about the photo is how weathered the lead ends of these two GR-17's are. 4508 nose shows a lot of the original old green and olive paint. I don't recall seeing these two engines looking like this when I hired on in 1977 so it would have been before then...George Dutka
