However, the Northlander is the only way in or out of a few places way up there, and it pretty well has to run with something... sounds to me as though the ONR units availble had problems, and they found something which was running and hooked it up and went! Junctionfan, any ideas? <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />No I stumped. I think I have heard something from a few people in my club but it was when I was working on the bench work so my mind was elsewhere. There is at least 3 people there who will be able to answer the reason. Our president is part of an ONR group/ society and is quite an ONR nut so when our club meets tomarrow for the Christmas party, I'll ask him. <br /> <br />The only thing I can think of is that CN has used some of the ONR locomotives in the past and the ONR wants some of CN's to make up in hours CN took from the ONR-pool power. <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />That makes sense, especially if ONR's SD75i locomotives have been working on CN freight trains, then obviously CN does owe ONR some power time.
