CN 4717 and 4777 have just tucked under the 401, making the slow and steady trek down the Sarnia Spur with a string of empty hoppers for the elevators in Blenheim. This is perhaps my favourite run in the province, combining a local job, a relic of a branchline, grain hoppers/elevators, and open countryside.
