Caption: After a big early morning derailment just east of the Credit River closed the entire line at 2am, GO service on the Georgetown line was severely crippled all day. Morning trains were cancelled, GO bus service was a mess due to 15 centemetres of snowfall, and evening train service was reduced (2 instead of 4 trains) and only ran as far as Mount Pleasant Station, with passengers going further west having to hop GO shuttle buses to their destinations. CN maintenance crews were all over the derailment site, and Hulcher crews with side-boom tractors and excavators were busy cleaning up the mess and cutting up CN #394's damaged cars at the Credit. The biggest impact however was that the otherwise busy CN Halton Sub was quiet for most of the day, as no freight or passenger traffic could pass. Evidence of this litters the champaign-lit ground this evening: it's 5:30pm, and the powdery snow being kicked up hasn't been touched by any other train since the derailment 15 hours ago.

After dropping off its load of evening commuters at Mount Pleasant just east of the derailment site, GO #205 highballs eastbound back to Toronto. F59PH class-unit 520 leads 10 empty commuter cars through downtown Brampton, slamming over the diamond at Mile 15.5 on the north track. Not being able to get to and tie down at Georgetown overnight, any GO's had to deadhead back to Toronto and return deadhead in the morning when the track was finally cleared.
