Viewing Album:  CN/CP in BC 1989
 
By:Donald Albertson
Dates:10/1/1989 - 10/4/1989
Album Info:A trip to BC in 1989 to shoot the BCR also included side trips to the big CN and CP facilities in the area. CN's Thornton yard was great; just sign a release, wear your hardhat and safety glasses and shoot away. The CP yard at Port Coquitlam was out of release forms but the CP cop let me do some shooting before I left.
