Happened to cross the bridge over CP-296 this evening and a WB with two white Soo units, elephant style, was setting out or picking up from the pocket yard, looked like a cut of NYS&W interchange ashphalt tanks right behind the units. Saw it about 5:30 PM, so they're probably in Rochester or Buffalo by now - have to think the old white scheme is fairly rare to see anymore.

Them units are slowly turning solid red when there time comes to hit the paint shop during overhauls. Don't know how many are left on the road nor how many ex MILW Bandits there are.
