BLE 909 With A Limestone Train |
| Description: |
A BLE Tunnel Motor takes lead on a loaded limestone train as the climb the grade past Dock 6. Nice power for even 2008. As Class Ones are starting to use even SD40 - 2s less. CN is still using DM&IR operations with Tunnel Motors |

Poor DM&IR Tunnel Motors |
| Description: |
Not this is terrible to see the Gold and Maroon Paint leaving the Tunnel Motors and other former DM&IR units. But thankful CN decided not to repaint #403 and #215, they are the last of their kinds now |

BLE 909 With 2 DMIR/CN Tinnel Motors |
| Description: |
This Tunnel Motor Trio is not as cool as one we got earlier this year where a pure set of BLE Tunnel Motors were taking a loaded taconite train down the Hill. Here we see this Trio taking a loaded limestone train up the hill. |
