Description: A more modern GE led train sits with several other much older EMDs. The CP 8539 was going to be part of a routine crew change until the fresh crew noticed and reported to the DS that the unit was missing a brake shoe. The crew then informed the DS that they would be sitting there for a bit to which the DS asked, "How long is a while?". It wasn't long after some help arrived from the CP shops.
