![The local yard power switches the ETR/CP Interchange Yard on a sunny Thursday afternoon. This power is usually on trains T-28/27 and T-20/21 but today they were assigned to yard duty.](http://www.railpictures.ca/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/IMG_8158-2-200x150.jpg)

![After a long day of switching industries on the city's West end ETR has a good sized train for CN 438 later tonight. This is at Dougall Ave. in Windsor. Here the ETR has to cross over the Windsor Sub to get into CN's Van de Water Yard via CP's connection into the yard just West of Dougall.](http://www.railpictures.ca/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/IMG_7649-2-200x150.jpg)

![On my way home from school today I saw this pull up to Dougall Ave in Windsor to do a crew change. I went home, grabbed my camera gear and headed back. They let an ETR local into CN's yard first before letting 244 depart. It's always nice seeing veteran power leading foreign units.](http://www.railpictures.ca/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/IMG_7659-2-200x150.jpg)

![After a wild chase through Windsor I was finally able to get in front of 438 on this grey October afternoon. I was on CP when I heard 438 call in to get clearance to leave Van De Water. I was in front of it along the CASO and I was going to go for a shot of it coming off of the CASO and going onto the Pelton but I took too long trying to find a good spot and the train snuck up on me. I ended up getting stuck by it on Provincial Rd. at Walker. I then decided to follow it along Walker. It wasn't hard getting in front again as I hit all of the green lights on Walker and CN only goes about 10-15mph on the Pelton. I was able to get him at the last crossing along the Pelton Spur which is Foster Ave. and even then I only beat him by about a minute. Train chasing in Windsor can be pretty challenging.](http://www.railpictures.ca/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/IMG_7609-3-200x150.jpg)

![The local boaters still haven't been out to unwrap their boats yet on this grey April afternoon. My friend and I ended up chasing this into Windsor as there weren't any CP's coming. Now this train comes into Windsor at 3 or 4 in the morning. For any of the locals on here this is right next to Sandbar Restaurant in Puce. The Puce River is about 1/4KM from this spot.](http://www.railpictures.ca/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/IMG_4569-2-200x150.jpg)

![A couple friends of mine met up at the Woodstock train show last weekend. A couple of hours and one empty wallet later we went to do some train watching. We first stopped at the CP MOW depot and found OSR 1401 and 1400 idling in front of the station. We later went to Bayview for the rest of the afternoon.](http://www.railpictures.ca/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/IMG_7529-200x150.jpg)

![After I finished a morning of some of my worst bowling I've ever done I decided to see if there was anything coming on CP. Lucky for me 234 had a UP SD90MAC trailing. So I raced home, grabbed my gear and got back to Dougall with a couple of minutes to spare. The other two trains I caught that day (241 and 244) also had UP power as well.](http://www.railpictures.ca/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/IMG_3542-200x150.jpg)

![This was one of those times when I think I'm psychic or something like that. I was sitting at home working on a couple of HO Scale ethanol tank cars (ironically 641 is an ethanol train) when I heard 641 asking for clearance on the scanner. I decided to go catch it without even knowing what power was on it. I beat it to Dougall with about 2 minutes to spare and after it passed me I went down to the tunnel to see it again.](http://www.railpictures.ca/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/IMG_3057-2-200x150.jpg)

![I was out train-watching yesterday before work and there was nothing on CP so I checked out CN and sure enough CN 439 was coming. I ended up catching it at two locations in the city, this being Howard Ave. The crew is getting ready to take their neck braces off as they head towards CN Van De Water Yard on this very bumpy section of track. Just before the crossing the engines were rocking so violently I thought they were going to derail.](http://www.railpictures.ca/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/IMG_3126-2-200x150.jpg)

![A friend of mine told me a CP ethanol was coming through town with a KCS and a CREX unit so I jumped on the opportunity to see it. I waited for about a half hour for the crew change to happen and after a couple of trains went by CP 640 got its clearance to depart Dougall and head East. This was my first time getting a photo of a KCS unit.](http://www.railpictures.ca/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/IMG_2743-4-200x150.jpg)

![I was coming home from bowling on Saturday and I decided to drive next the CP tracks near my house to see if anything was coming. I'm lucky I did as I saw this pulling up to the Walker Rd. underpass to get ready for its slow trip through the VACIS machine. I drove home, grabbed my gear and went down to the Ouellette overpass in-between Dougall (behind the camera) and McDougall. I waited for about 15-20 minutes in the cold and it finally came. This is fairly rare for this train as it usually has 3 SD40-2s. Hopefully this power sticks around here as this is a local NS and CSX transfer from Windsor to Detroit and back.](http://www.railpictures.ca/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/IMG_3028-2-200x150.jpg)

![A few nights ago my friend and I went out to the Lakeshore area in Essex County to do some train-watching. We decided to wait for VIA 78 even though it was pitch black. That's one of the reasons why I don't like winter. It gets dark by 6:00pm.](http://www.railpictures.ca/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/VIA-78-Sharpened-200x150.jpg)

![Here's one of my photo's of 40B in Windsor, ON. near Optimist Park. You can see the conductor waving in the window. This was my 2nd time seeing the RCP in Windsor in about 10 years. Last time it came down it had a steam engine on it. Thanks to everyone for the info on the location of the train!](http://www.railpictures.ca/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/IMG_2301-2-200x150.jpg)

![After my I finished my last exam of the school year I went train-watching with a friend of mine to celebrate. When we got to the tracks we saw a train way down the line so we started setting up for it. I definitely wasn't expecting it to be the CP Tech/Geometry Train. I haven't seen it down here for a while so I was pretty happy I got to see it. This was taken at M.P. 109.30 in Windsor, ON.](http://www.railpictures.ca/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/IMG_1480-200x150.jpg)

![I decided to go do some Easter Monday train-watching and I saw a couple of trains. The first was CP 640 with CP 8939 and IC&E 6422. I'm not sure what that decal on the nose of 8939 is for.](http://www.railpictures.ca/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/IMG_1387-2-200x150.jpg)

![My dad and I saw VIA 76 sitting at the station in Windsor so we decided to catch it going over the Belle River in Belle River, Ontario. They were flying through town. They were doing at least 90m/h. The train also had one of those rebuilt VIA1 LRC cars.](http://www.railpictures.ca/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/IMG_1292-200x150.jpg)

![While my dad and I were out for a drive I heard on the scanner a BNSF was leading a train and it had clearance to Tilbury to meet another train (we were in Belle River at the time). While driving to Tilbury we saw the Westbound 608 was suppose to meet. When we got to Tilbury we saw the last tank car going over the crossing and around the curve. So we pulled a quick U-turn (in a drive-way) and jumped on the 401 and raced it to Kent Bridge and we made it with about 5 minutes to spare.](http://www.railpictures.ca/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/IMG_1301-200x150.jpg)

![On January 5th 2014 Windsor was getting hit by a major snow storm. I decided to brave the elements and venture out to see if I could get a photo of a train in the snow. I was lucky 240 came by within 20 minutes of my arrival. The conductor yelled, "Snow!" when they passed. This was also my second time using my new Canon.](http://www.railpictures.ca/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/IMG_0071-200x150.jpg)
