According to my notes, this power came in off of freight #50 from Kentville and switched the cars that would become the next train I would ride: overnight mixed #21 to Truro. Truro was a connection to the CNR mainline between Halifax and Montreal, and I recall reading of a time when the interchange between DAR and CNR was preferred at Truro instead of Windsor Junction (just out of Halifax.) In any case, the two CPR SW1200RS's - 8133 and 8137 - took our mixed to Truro and back to Windsor.
