Hey, remember that Shuttlewagon I saw at the Balgonie elevator? I was looking through some recent photos I took in Winnipeg and I realized I saw one here too.
On July 12 I photographed a Shuttlewagon with three flatcars on the MOW* stub siding around mile 10.6 on the CN Rivers subdivision. This particular unit is owned by Falcon Shuttle Rail in North Transcona (Winnipeg).
This particular unit is a SWX525Be, built in 2004. It features a tractive effort rating of 34,500 lbs. For comparison, a stock GP9 has a starting tractive effort of about 40,000 lbs.
Swingmaster CN 434-60 was at the other end of the three flatcars. More photos
* MOW = Maintenance Of Way
