Caption: I had just gotten off the GO train in Aldershot and threw the scanner on just in case. I heard 570 in the area and they were being instructed to tie their entire train down in track 32 on account of having 20 minutes left of time (this was around 1500). I scooted over to Lemonville just in time for this shot of them shoving back onto 32. The head end traffic appears to all be for Hamilton, and I believe over the scanner I heard talk of Oakville traffic too. This is all part of the changes that have come with the recent cancellation of 330/331. Another such change is 435 will no longer be working Aldershot, and as a result it sounds like it was in Paris much earlier than usual yesterday. An E275 will be part of this as well, but I am not sure if one has ran yet or not.
This power was on 570 on Monday as well I hear, and when I went through Aldershot this morning on the GO I saw it tied down at the east end of the yard with a fairly good sized train behind it for Mac with a lot of traffic out of Hamilton (coils, gons, CN/SPMX/Canpotex hoppers from NSC, etc.). Presumably this means it will be Wednesday's 570 as well. I wonder how long this power will stay on 570?
