RLK 4001 getting a bit of love and care in Stuart one February afternoon. I saw the fuel truck out fueling the CN yard power last week which reminded me of this encounter.

New Brunswick Southern Railway 6410 leads train 120 as they come out of the woods and around the bend at Grand Bay, New Brunswick. Nice to have the green scene that the summer brings. Rain for the last two days really brings out the tree colors, and the green ponies are a nice touch.

Multimarks the proper way. Two CP SD 40-2 6018 and 6048 follow CP 6257 with their multimarks next to each other. The locos have just returned light from the tunnel and are seen crossing Dougall Avenue on this very humid Saturday!

Nice sunny mid-afternoon. Not sure of this train number; but guessing it is the "pulp train" on account a quartet of GP9s for power; and they were based at Fort Erie or Niagara Falls for the most part back then. Lashup makes for a nice scene; CN 4565, 4495, 4527 and 4571 are the numbers.
Autos in scene......my old blue Cougar, next to it (the late) Bill McArthurs chev wagon; and the little green heap I have no info on.

In 2004 I had a nice DSLR, an itch to scratch, and well, everything excited me. A rail grinder was coming ! Oh boy! So I beelined it for Ayr with enough time to catch the parade of westbounds that were before me. I simply parked here and snapped happily as these trains passed in great sunlight. <a href=http://www.railpictures.ca/?attachment_id=40054 target=_blank>First was an auto train at 4:25 PM with a great leader</a> then came this, at 5:53 PM, the Ham Turn, which I believe was train 525. The 'ham turn' ran from London to Hamilton and back and it's main purpose was to bring autoracks from Toyota east then south to connections in Hamilton for Buffalo, returning the other way in the afternoon. I would often find the Ham Turn in Galt lifting around 0830 and I think even then that was a late train. Going back north/west they usually had a very small train (to no train at all) with some parts cars for TDS in Tillsonburg that were handed off to the OSR and they do seem to be on the head end today, but looks like they also lifted some autoracks in Galt too. They also worked occasional customers especially those that were only served by 4 axle power such as the Ayr pit spur, Phillips & Daughters in Puslinch amongst others. The other local on the line(London Pickup) had 6 axle power at the time and it's job was to bring Toyota traffic to London from Galt to be lifted by other mainline trains, and with six axle power on the Pickup they couldn't work too many customers, hence Ham Turn did the rest. The Galt traffic came from the twice daily Galt job that worked to Toyota and back from Galt proper. In the evenings, Trains 127, 129, 139, 147 with auto traffic to or from from Oshawa, Brampton, Windsor, and Toyota lifted the auto traffic in London. All of this has since been consolidated into the current "London Pickup" and 2 Wolverton jobs, with all set offs and lifting done in Wolverton instead. Train 147 now handles almost all automotive traffic instead of the four trains that did so previously. 254 and 255 handle all the Buffalo connections now, but what we'd give to see this again today eh.

After working the CN Newmarket Sub between Washago and North Bay the past few days, I caught CN W914 pooping out what appeared to be its last string of rail at Mile 132.5 just north of Martins on my way in to run the Portage Flyer this morning.

CN 148 cruises through Brantford with CN 2935, CN 3008 and CN 232 on a sunny first day of fall. CN 232 is a slug unit most likely on its way to Brampton Intermodal Terminal, it appears to have been recently overhauled and is sporting a nice fresh coat of paint.

Edmonton-Toronto train 104 waits for a crew to come on duty in Hardisty Alberta. The station in the background has since been relocated and repurposed and now serves as a restaurant.

Recent news suggests 30 of CP's SD9043MAC's (like the 9123 and 9114 pictured here) are off to Kentucky to be rebuilt by Progress Rail.

On lease to the Orangeville Brampton Railway, CP 8249 leads the Credit Valley Explorer along the former CP Owen Sound Subdivision. This shot would be one of the rarest due to the GP9u retirements, who knows how long the 8249 has but certainly this was something worth chasing.
