Remarks & Notes |
At start up WC bought a number of smaller EMD SW's. These worked fine for a few years, until increasing traffic made them a little underpowered for some assignments. The WC then started to accumulate a fleet of SW1500's and the smaller SW's were then left to more undemanding jobs and occasionally leased out to online paper mills. This is 1232 between assignments at Shops Yard. |
