About mberry


My name is Michael Berry and I grew up in Montreal West, a town with numerous rail lines passing through. I have always been interested in trains but have been photographing them on a regular basis since 2005. I currently use a Nikon D5300 with a NIKKOR 18-300mm f/3.5-6.3G ED VR lens. For even more of my photos, check out http://www.flickr.com/photos/mtlwestrailfan/.

This was the first run of CN 528, a new train replacing CP 930, which used to operate on CP trackge from St-Luc Yard to Harrisburg, usually with Norfolk Southern power. CN 528 will run on CN tracks till Rouses Point, NY. It has just exited Taschereau Yard and is on its way to L'Acadie, Qc to pick up its train. The next few weeks after this, the train would not operate out of Taschereau Yard, but out of Southwark Yard in St-Lambert. Since then it has been renumbered to 328 and now operates out of Taschereau Yard again.

<b> AMT Mishmash.</b> In 2009 we see 3 AMT trains laying over for the weekend at Delson. The equipment comes from such disparate sources as CN (a GP9), NJT (GP40FH-2 and cars), GO Transit (cars) on top of equipment built new for the AMT (F59PHI and cars). From the front, we first see AMT 1325 (F59PHI) with 3 700 series AMT cars and 1 leased NJT car. Next is AMT 1310 (GP9), generator car 604 and 4-ex GO tranist 'Go Karts'. Last is AMT 4140 (a GP40FH-2 on lease from NJT) and 3 700 series AMT cars mixed with 2 leased NJT cars. Unfortunately AMT trains no longer lay over here on weekends. The new location is not easily photographable like this one.

<b>Big Blue over the Lachine Canal</b> Long after Conrail had been divided up between CSX and Norfolk Southern, but before they repainted all their ex-Conrail engines, it was still possible to see Conrail painted engines in Montreal. Here we see NS 8401 leading a train southbound over CP's Rockfield bridge. NS 8401 is a Dash8-40CW which was built by GE as CR 6199 in 1993. Trailing unit is NS 9523.

Every winter, The Port of Montreal Railway sends a couple of locomotives to participate in the Old Port Symphony, which involves boats, trains and church bells making a lot of noise. This past March, POM sent two of its quite new RP20BD switchers; a rare chance to see them up close. The lead unit is POM 1001 with a conventional nose, much further behind is POM 1004 which has no nose. For more train photos, check out http://www.flickr.com/photos/mtlwestrailfan/

VIA 6407 pulls into Dorval to make its station stop and is about to pass a stopped CN westbound that had just got a new crew (not a very common occurrence). The CN westbound is powered by CN 2567, CN 2419 and CN 2515 (the last out of sight) For more train photos, check out http://www.flickr.com/photos/mtlwestrailfan/

CN 2572 smokes it up as it leads a TankTrain west through Lachine, on its way towards the refineries of East End Montreal. Trailing unit is CN 5634. These trains, which ran from an Ultramar refinery in St-Romuald (near Quebec City) to Montreal have since been replaced by a pipeline.
