Last time I talked to an engineer at the yard he said the costs of the washing materials was really starting to prohibit washing units on a more regular basis. I wonder if they are only doing the ones that are so dirty you could hardly make out which railroad it belonged to.

Your lucky to see that. I hate washing locos when it is hot and they have no AC. You can only go .5 MPH and it gets hot in those cabs. That day i think it was about 120 in that cab when i finally got to open the windows up.

I once got to drive a AC4400CW leased to CP unit into the wash rack there. My cousin used to work for the CP there.
