Yard grab
Title:  Yard grab
Description:  I was able to get a grab shot off the train as we passed the yard in St John. Alcos in the house-an RS 23 and a C424. The RS 23's were common, and held down a variety of local and yard assignments. Some would get assigned to the D&H when CP took over the following year.

Windsor & Hansport (WHRC)
Title:  Windsor & Hansport (WHRC)
Description:  A couple of us Fremont Northwestern guys made trips to!assess locomotives for purchase, back when FNW was cranking. At the time, junk EMDs were $100k and running Alcos were $20k, so the math was easy. One stop was the WHRC which had all its RS23s up for sale, against the wishes of the line's GM. The GM said the line's owner was forcing them to go EMD, and the RS23s always started and ran, and were better on fuel. WHRC was trying to sell all the units together and wouldn't sell individual units/ which was too much $$ for us to bite off. Eventually, I heard all of them were scrapped for their 251 engines and electical gear.
