W&H 8026 East empty gypsum, Falmouth, Nova Scotia; Aug 31, 1994_
While in the area to photograph the Cape Breton & Central Nova Scotia we lucked into the startup of the Windsor & Hantsport Railway. They had recently took over operation of the lines operated by CP subsidiary Dominion Atlantic (DAR). They started with a small fleet of former CP RS23s, or ugly 8s as they were known. To keep from overheating, they all faced west to keep the radiators facing into the direction they operated with the loaded trains.
