I'm a carman from the Vancouver car shop and was surfing and came across this picture of bn 972502. I was in charge of the R&R on this unit. It was a group of talanted guys from vancouver that redid this dozer. We took alot of time on the paint and did a few little extras to it in hopes the guys running it would be more comphy. We put diamond plate kick boards on the sid doors as the door panels were coroded there and got the foreman to get the flags for the sides also. you will noticte low and to the left of the flag is calvin pissing on the UP. I got those on my own and put them on just as the dozer was to leave the shop. I thought it might be a sorce of humor for the operaters At the time we didnt know it was an old GN unit or we would have tried to give it the billy goat paint scheme. It had the BN number so we went with the cascade green to go retro and the boss liked the idea so we ended up with the old BN logos too. Enjoy it guys!
