Waking Up to the Smell of Bacon, Canadian Bacon that is! NS 172 was sporting one heck of a colorful lash-up with not a single black & white in sight! A VERY rare 'Northern' visitor, CN 2243 leads another rare rival visitor, CSXT 7855, and the more common Western visitor, UP 5175! Here NS 172 is seen passing the signal at Motor as it is about to duck underneath the Highway 80 overpass I'm standing on. With this being my first CN unit on the point of a train, it was worth the trip back to my old stompin' grounds to chase NS 172
