About Marcus Stevens

I have lived in Mississauga, Ontario all my life and have had an interest in railways since I got my first train set at age four. Both my father and grandfather worked for Canadian Pacific at one time. I got into railroad photography in the mid 1990s after years of being inspired by the incredible railroad photos I saw in magazines such as CTC Board, Railfan & Railroad as well as Trains, just to mention a few. In 2002 I got my first article published in CTC Board and have been writing articles since, when time allows. Today my camera of choice is Canon's 70D. I have been blessed with two amazing boys that often accompany me on railfan adventures, and both love trains and planes.

Goderich -Exeter plow extra spent the previous day plowing the Guelph sub to Kelly's. The train idles away in the -20 wind chill in the yard in Stratford. In a few short hours the power will be throttled up and will begin digging out the line to Goderich.

Autumns colours maybe almost history at mile 30 but they are alive and well in the consist of 399 this day, in the form of a BNSF GE and New England Central GP38 2048 (rebuilt from a GP40). The NECR unit was in transit from Butler, Pa to Vermont but has taken a wrong turn at Toronto and is heading west again. The shot here is parallel to the new golf course and was once a popular hang out for many railfans including those from the Georgetown Railfan Society
( not an official group :)

The sound of a train horn from my home from where I have never heard a horn made me wonder if CP was lifting the Hydro One dimensional car and caboose from the spur leading to the Trafalgar facility spur. A line that has seen two transformer deliveries in the last three years. As luck would have it they were lifting the empty car, and are seen here crawling northbound at Britannia Road, running on a very weedy and rusty track.

CN local 547 has a pair of GP9RMs backing down the Townline spur to a lumber facility. CN still has enough traffic in Milton to justify a daily switch out of Aldershot yard in Burlington.

GEXR train 431 rolls past residential homes in downtown Guelph. GO Transits proposal to eliminate grade crossings here would speed up train traffic but most likely fence off any photo opportunities.

A former BNSF Dash8 is seen leading a BNSF SD60I past mile 30 just north of Milton on train 399.
Foreign power seems to be more the rule then the exception these days. A nice change from recent years.
