VIA FPA4 dispostions: Windsor & Hantsport

VIA #6765 Disposition: Windsor & Hantsport #6765

Windsor & Hantsport's purchase of ex-VIA 6765 off the second-hand locomotive market is perhaps the least known of the FPA4 dispositions. Initially, W&H management was uncertain as to the role the cab unit would play on the Canadian shortline railroad; thus the 6765 sat idle and for the most part ignored. It was eventually sold to the Canadian Railroad Historical Association and cosmetically restored to its as-delivered appearance, and it is presently on exhibit at EXPO Rail in Delson, Quebec.
