Geez, this location has changed so much….this is a great shot! Also, is there another train at the bridge?
Ahh, breaking out the goodies now are you Arnold?!; another great shot of how much more interesting Merritton used to be before they removed most of the track. CP 5416 went to NRE in 2004, apparently without ever getting proper CP paint.
Thanks for the update on 5416. I wondered if was just assigned the number and stored. Once again a dull day shot, but that is all you can do with westbound morning trains on the Grimsby. To Doc: MIGHT be another train on the bridge. Sure looks that way. Local??
Arnold, this is my second favourite of your Merritton shots. Only the bullet nose shot is better.
That side track just beside the front actually is still there, surprisingly. It’s terribly overgrown, however.
*front unit…whoops.
Weeds….the great camouflage.
Mr. Mooney quick question regarding NS #327 and #328, any estimate how far back these trains ran on the Grimsby Sub? Early 90′s, 80′s etc? Thank you in advance.
Paul: I’m sorry, I haven’t the time frame for #327/328 but if I can find anything out I will post it here. My notes show I caught #328 at Merritton in August of 1994. Some other listings in which I was at Dundas in 1993 showed no mention of these trains, however. So that might narrow it down.

Perhaps a scholar on this list will know.
Thank you Mr. Mooney. Earliest reference I found for it was 95. Have a feeling with your notes from Dundas in 93, likely have the answer. Appreciate your help very much!
You’re welcome. My listings of #328 back then were erratic, as there were lots of other places to be…….and the #328 was a pair of black NS almost every day at that time.
