CPKC 357 and 251 with new units in CPKC paint May 25, 2024
The first revenue run for the first two units in the new CPKC paint scheme. South of Nahant Yard we see first 357 followed closely by 251 with the new paint scheme. CP 9375 and KCS 4805, both stenciled below the cab numbers on the new paint. Thanks for watching comment like and subscribe.

Just think. We’re all so excited to catch these shiny brand new units in a new paint scheme, but in a few years when this scheme is everywhere we’ll be rushing around trying to catch the last few CP and KCS units still in “heritage” paint! Nice catch, Jeff! It’ll be nice to see these new ones out and about, but hopefully they won’t take over too quickly!
