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/.

Run-through train CN 327 (which gets handed off to a CSX crew at a siding near the Quebec-New York border) was normally powered by CSX units until last fall. Since that time, CN power has powered this train 100% of the time, with CN power running as far as Massena, New York. Here a high headlight SD70M-2 and an SD75I lead the train through Pointe-Claire.

Clean CN 9590 leads faded CN 9523 as CN 500 enters the Port of Montreal as thick snow falls. CN 9590 had just replaced CN 4795 on this assignment, but it would develop issues later that day and has already been replaced by CN 9416.

In an uncommon move, VIA 22 on Wednesday had a Siemens trainset from Ottawa to Montreal (normally the only revenue runs with a Siemens consist for now are VIA 33 and VIA 26 on Tuesdays). Here it is deadheading back to the Montreal Maintenance Centre, as an LRC consist would do the Montreal-Quebec City portion of VIA 22's run.

VIA 6208 has been completely stripped after undergoing what I believe is a tear-down examination at CAD. VIA Rail was mandated by a Transport Canada order released on October 19th of last year to do a number of tests on stainless steel cars.
