MEC GP-7 579 switches in Calais Yard

MEC GP-7 579, still in it B&M inspired colors switches in the compact Calais (Cal-us) yard. It had come in earlier on the point of BC-3. The rest of the locomitive consist was GP-7/GP-7/GP-38/RS-11/GP-38 all in different color schemes. The locomotive would make a round trip to the large Georgia Pacific Mill in Woodland, Maine ten miles up the river and then would spend the week in Calais. The other locomotives would return to Bangor that evening on BC-4.
