The 8705 leads the 4 motors & 21 marble cars of Job 102 south of Jasper as they head for Tate to call it a day. With 21 loaded cars in tow, one of the bigger trains to have come south from Whitestone, the 4 engines, with 2.5 of them being 567 prime movers (4631 has 645 power assemblies), I knew I would be in for a good show with this rather literal "Throwback Thursday" of a power consist that harkens back to the days before Patriot Rail. But boy, was I proven wrong, because from Talking Rock to Jasper, these 4 motors legitimately put on one of the best shows of noise I've ever gotten to experience.
