CPR Relic Boxcars and Spur lines
Posted by Trainmaster.Curt on Thursday, May 31, 2007 2:04 PM

In Transcona where i live i noticed this yard the CPR uses for O.O.S cars, and i got a few good shots of it, and some retired 40' boxcars which have been sitting there since 1996, these are hard to find these days outside of museums, most were sent to Mandak Steel for scrap. I hope you enjoy these images of the past. I also am putting some pics of old cars from CPR's Winnipeg Yard, BNSF's Westview Yard, and some Spur lines, and an old Caboose for good measureApprove [^]
