    Nice work Matt! I didn’t know you could shoot from the north side there.

    Single unit, or was there a DPU?

    Nice one Matt! CP always tried to cheap out and run those container trains (152/153/158/159) with one unit blunders all the time. But they soon found out after how bad things would go when it tied up the railway, shortly they would put an SD40-2 with it to keep things moving.

    @CNCNDR I understood HH wanted to send out trains and not have them waiting to fill up.

    I’m including a favourite with my comment Matt. I love the little white tank car just behind the engine. :-)

    Damn, I just gave my little 40′ tank car to a friend that models the 70′s era.. Guess I should have held onto it.. Any Model Railroaders up here i’m sure would understand… :)

    I saw that very tank running Eastbound on the Grimsby sub this morning. Interesting design. Kind of caves in from the sides. Anyone know the builder/purpose. And a lot of other 40′ (ish) tanks too in the train. I’m getting my model back just to know what industry to bulid where I can spot it!
