Golden Beaver
CPs Golden Beaver scheme is seen on CP AC4400CW No. 9723, sitting at Geddis. The Beaver kinda looks a little like a shark now since the heat and age hasn’t been to well to the decals. Geddis, a small yard east of Kamloops is used for setting off extra power that was used to assist trains over the mountain grades. Power will then be lifted to assist eastbounds back over the mountains. With directional running in the Fraser, and Thompson Canyon there is practically no grade on the CN so the use of extra power is not needed west of Kamloops.
