Remarks & Notes 
Remote receiver WC 17 sits in the engine servicing facility at the WC (ex-ACR) shops in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario. This Remote Control Receiver, an ex-CPR caboose, was used to MU to any locomotive effectively making them an RC Unit. The use of this was quickly dismissed by crews after testing in the Sault.
