Repairs..

Carberry Manitoba

CP 8537 AC4400W has a pinion from the motor cut out by workers on a siding in Carberry.
The motor piled and burned up and jammed the pinion up on it to the trucks.
One of these two guys had a torch to cut the pinion off so the locomotive can be taken to Moose Jaw for repairs he told me.

1/200s f/9.0 at 98.0mm iso200 full exif

Now that the traction motor construction moved to Mexico, I think this site will become common place!

It's very common to cut the pinion I see lots at C.P. Rail shops in Moose.....
