Thanks i love trains and the sound.Used to live right next to the railroad track and at a crossing from the time i was a baby till 1990,when they stopped the dayliner going from Halifax to Yarmouth, I was even on the last ride.My father worked on that railroad for 35 yrs.It was a sad day Jan.14,1990 i believe it was.
Glad you enjoyed the sounds - the sound of a train especially on a still evening can be quite haunting. I remember listening to a steam locomotive at night on the prairies!!
Many thanks Dave. I have three C-630 ho models of this class much in need of serious need of detailing,with the help of the video using pause & enlargement I will be busy for some time.Once again many thanks Stan Westbury wilts UK.

I just noticed that this video came out in 2015 which is the exact number for the C630M that is in the thumbnail

You are most welcome. One of my objectives in making the videos is to provide modelling information.
Hi
I'm putting together a TH-cam Video on the alco\mlw c-630. may I use some of this footage?
What is the name of that theme song? I would love to know. I heard it on TV in Korea, such as the news.
Quick question about these Alco's, what is the big four piece vent panel atop the long hood just behind the cab?
Hi David, great high horsepower Alco's. You wouldn't happen to have any video of CP's Alco C-640 would you ?
Unfortunately none - I don't remember ever seeing it. I will try and put together a video of the M636s if there is interest.
I figured it was a long shot but had to ask anyway. Alco's are always welcome .
David Othen David, I'm definitely interested! Awesome videos by the way.

Thanks. Hope to search out footage of M636s next!
As far as I know they are air intakes.
