Engine Locomotive
Starting a 567 GM "E" Locomotive Diesel Engine

Steel-rail dreams (Edmonton Journal)
The sky turns pink as Engine 5353 is roused from its sleep in a shed in
Forestburg. Whining and shaking, the locomotive that once hauled passengers
across the prairies on Canadian National's main line creeps forward and out
into the icy mist of dawn. Riding steel nearly sold for scrap, the train
rumbles by a towering grain elevator local farmers saved from destruction, and
begins a 90-kilometre journey past farms and oilfields and through tiny
communities that sprung up when the rail was laid 100 years ago.
