A diesel train engine made a whistle stop in Ontario on its way from Alaksa to new duty with a scenic railroad operation in New Mexico. The engine was used by the White Pass & Yukon Railway and now goes to Cumbres and Toltec Scenic Railroad as a backup for its steam engines. Ted Curphey, an Ontario train fan and photographer, captured the visit.
