Nice photo!  Is that CN GP-9 still working in 2020?   The passenger locomotive also looks interesting.

Privately owned Clyde/EMD 'Bulldog' 42103 heads the AK car track testing train along Australian Rail Track Corporation tracks in suburban Adelaide, South Australia, near Osborne on 11 March 2020.
42103 was built by Clyde Engineering for the New South Wales Department of Railways in 1966 and withdrawn at the end of 1986. Resurrected in 1990 it saw use with several operators before again being withdrawn in early 2013. Privately purchased in 2017 along with 42105, it has been restored to the former NSW "Candy' livery.

Not sure about that particular unit but CN is still running their old GP9s.  The passenger unit is a dual service ALP45.

There's 86 left at last count... 1 in the 4000 series, 18 in the 4100 series, 67 in the 7000 and 7200 series.
