CN F7 #9106 and GP9 #4219

: Wildwood, ALTA, Canada, Summer, 1971

On route 16 between Edmonton and the Jasper National Park, met this CN westbound freight train raising the white flag high above the cab. In the photo are CN F7 #9106 and GP9 #4219.

CN #9106 was built in 1952, and was rebuilt to F7Au #9170 in 1973. She was rebuilt to trailing only unit #9101 in 1983, by stripping cab appliances and covering windows. She was retired in 1989.
CN #4219 was built in 1957 as CN #4601, but was renumbered to #4219 in the same year. She was rebuilt to GP9RM #4101 in 1984 and retired in 2001.

Outside braced boxcar next to GP9 is also interesting.
