CN EMD G-8 #803
Title:  CN EMD G-8 #803
Description:  One of two G-8's painted in the zebra stripes(800 being the other) 803 looks like her letterboards were swindled. Kinda looks like stealing ruby's from the eyes of a valuable idol.

CN EMD G-8 #803
Title:  CN EMD G-8 #803
Description:  R/H shot of 803. The sun was pretty bright that day. The G-8's, or 'pups' as they were known, were mostly used on the branchlines of Carbonear, Bonavista and Argentia. Some did however reach other parts of the province. One was even leased to the Grand Falls Central when one of it's 70-tonners was down for heavy maintenance.
