Remarks & Notes 
Call them MLW Killers! BCRail took delivery of 18 General Electric C40-8's with the Draper Taper car body design starting in May of 1990 effectively spelling the end of the 6 motor MLW/Alco era on BCR. The railroad would hang onto a few 6 motor MLW's for work train and stand-by service for about a year and they too would be jettisoned from the roster. Unit 4612 has been on the property for a matter of days and is being readied for its first trip south.

An exclamation attributed to TV presenter Jeremy Clarkson, it is this eponymous expression of which certain images convey man and machine versus nature . . .
