RLK 4057 and stable-mate NECR 3840 slowly climb upgrade past the then idle elevators through Hagersville with one of several wind turbine trains destined for SOR's Franklin Yard further south near Nanticoke, ON. Franklin Yard is located on the US Steel spur just off of Concession 3 and served as a temporary, convenient trans load site for local wind turbine units rail to truck. CEFX 2019 sits parked for the moment on siding HD 34. Additionally I would like to enter this photo into the 'Time Machine' challenge as a companion photo to my 2011 photo http://www.railpictures.ca/?attachment_id=26075 and moreover partnered with the original photo submitted by John Eull http://www.railpictures.ca/?attachment_id=4863 of 1986. The office / depot was smoked between photos and the water tower repainted white with a blue base. The 'Time Machine' challenge provides an opportune and interesting comparison.

    Nice shot Glenn! I remember this day was an ugly one of snow squalls and drifting roads. I wasn’t brave enough to venture out but I am glad you did!
