Orange Minorca Limestone
The afternoon Proctor Switch (R922) pulls Minorca limestone around the Spirit Mountain Curve on August 30, 2020. I haven't been out to shoot in September much but here's one from a couple of weeks ago. The same EMDs continue to keep holding down most of the limestone and ore assignments for CN out of Proctor as we start Q4 2020.
The lead BLE 909 still looks pretty good in the Bessemer orange paint that Proctor applied when they rebuilt the tunnel motor for their Transtar sister road 20 years ago. The 909 and 903 would be the first BLE engines assigned to Proctor by CN in 2005. It's hard to believe this orange tunnel motor has spent the last 15 years up here.
