Dunsmuir CA - SP SD40T-2's northbound

Earlier in the day I had seen this consist arrive in Dunsmuir from the south. Sadly the condition of the locos was quite typical of SP in its later days.

 

The radiator grid in the lower bodyshell at the back denotes a "tunnel motor", equipped for extra ventilation to the engine beneficial whilst working in tunnels.

 

The locos are 8282, 8321 and 8261, all SD40T-2's.
