All the deadline engines are gone from the CN (IC) Woodcrest yard in Homewood, Illinois.  There were four Missabe tunnel motors waiting to get into the shop and a BCRail red white and blue engine behind the shops but all the WC engines are gone.

Possibly cleaned up the property as the annual meeting of CN was held in Chicago today.  No doubt Mr Harrison and the BOD inspected the property.

I think those are gone because their leases ran out and as a result those CN/WC gray ghosts are probably heading back to GCFX.
