Alas, "The Berm" aka CN Snake - a great spot for photos after 9 AM and before 11 AM but sadly overrun with Ticks - really do NOT recommend anyone visit this spot, it's so badly infested I wouldn't even try it anymore. Lemonville rd is much safer for now. Here's train 710? (trying to hearken back 5 years) a typical oil train with buffer and cans passing a nice summer scene in Burlington with two '8-s in the lead.

    Nice combination of units. I think the 8′s wear CN paint very well. Fine looking oil train Steve. :-)

    A search of “CN 2009″ on Flickr pulls up this image, identifying it as CN 720.

    Excellent thank you, I knew someone would come through with the real info. Thanks pal! I don’t know how I got such good sun though considering the photo on Flickr. Lucky I guess!
