[quote]QUOTE: A former neighbor of mine who worked at CLC was involved in the design of the transmissions of these " critters" .[/quote] <br /> <br />A correct term for a switcher like the DT-2 would be a "Centercab" [;)] <br /> <br />I would be interested in how the trasmissions were designed. <br /> <br />[quote]QUOTE: I called it CP 14, as I do not know what Crestbrook Numbered it.[/quote] <br /> <br />I think it had no number. It had "Crestbrook Forest Industries ltd." on the entire side of the switcher. Nothing much. When I looked at #14 before it was moved, you could actually see the Canadian Pacific decals, and on the other side of the switcher, you could see the 14 where it was painted over. I wish I could have seen it when it was brand new in the paint job! <br /> <br />[quote]QUOTE: Regarding the Multi Mark and CP Rail. As I said before, envision that Scheme applied to CP Steam Power, and you might get the Drift of what I mean. Would Look Horrid. Envision the Multi Mark Scheme applied to CP 15 Switching in Victoria in those Vintage Views. Would be as Jarring at that NYC Box in the Jade Green.[/quote] <br /> <br />*shudder* Yeah, I agree with that. I just think the SD40's looked good with that.[;)] <br /> <br />[quote]QUOTE: Those Burners are now passe, and they apparently use the Waste in the Value Added Mill.[/quote] <br /> <br />Also there's all the enviromental regulations on the burning of stuff. If they wanted to burn somthing, they would also ship it over to Skookumchuck so it would at least get turned into something useful by the Co-gen plant. <br /> <br />[quote]QUOTE: The Train Master, another Cult Diesel, was Built by CLC also.[/quote] <br /> <br />Cool! I should look at the model that Atlas of selling! <br /> <br />Chris
