Posted by Mitch Goldman on March 27, 2008  Where in Strasburg, PA is that? Kidding, nice to see the real deal, a good 'ol fashion CN noodled caboose. Nice catch. Posted by Ray Peacock heartlandrails.com on March 28, 2008  Great lighting, nice catch. Posted by Kevin R Wilson-Smith on March 28, 2008  Very nice - unusual shot and pretty atmospheric. Posted by Imprezzed on March 28, 2008  That's quite a catch...CN cabeese did not often have yellow cupolas...the ones that did, were often on (you guessed it) work train service. So, not only did you catch a Caboose which is rare to begin with, you captured a rare CN Caboose.

I'm not sure what they did when they got to their destination. Not only that, the 5503 still has traces of its original 9903 number on the rear of the unit! Posted by Mike Nyiri on April 1, 2008  5503 is a SD50AF which is a SD50 with the 710 Diesel Engine. It's essentially a SD60.
