Guest Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 Looks like a recent rebuild of an old Allan rail car, CP class 0350. Thanks Eddie, that was a new one on me. I'm still undecided if it's ugly or attractive. Unusual, for sure. https://www.flickr.com/photos/25105996@N02/4372837343 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
unklian Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 The railcars were originally built by Allan in the Netherlands with AEC engines, and they looked very like their Dutch relatives. They were heavily refurbished in the 90's and renosed, not an improvement IMO. 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
