The VIA station these days is about the only bright spot in an otherwise sad looking rail scene on the former Canadian National mainline. Here we find CN 5722 as it leads a short train of only ten cars, slowly trundling along almost following on the heels of VIA train 78 that departed only 20 minutes earlier.

    Nice work and nice placement. Always wanted to shoot a freight here. Haven’t yet!

    I am finding it difficult to travel two hours (round trip) to shoot one train, maybe two…

    when it’s just another CN or CP train..
