1408 is on point as the 1600 Yard Job works one of the many east end industries in Hamilton, switching out Yellowline Asphalt, first lifting the empties before spotting loads. This used to be the lead used by Stelco engines to access the gondola loading bays when Stelco's Rod Mill was still there.

    Thanks all. Took a bit of patience for some of those whispy clouds to clear off the sun but eventually I got the light I wanted and fortunately they were in a shootable location at the time.

    And hey, beauty is all in the eye of the beholder, Rob! :) The City did a photo contest a year or two ago specifically on the subject of beauty in the industrial area (I am paraphrasing but that was the general intent). Was kind of neat to see the entries.
