“Changing of the guard” Trillium’s power for the former Cando operation out of Orangeville has finally arrived at Streetsville. Here we see past and present power for the OBRY sitting in the yard. The former Milwaukee Road MP15 was relocated from Trillium’s other operation in the Niagara Region and may only be temporary power for the line out of Orangeville. Cando’s last run over the line was on June 30 to drop the GP9 in the background, while Trillum will head north on July 2 for the first time. It’s interesting that CP local T14 did not lift the GP9 on its return trip to Toronto, maybe the paperwork wasn’t approved yet for shipping?

    I haven’t heard of a schedule yet but would imagine the days should be the same to work around the customers and CP’s schedule.
