This day myself and fellow Railfan Brian Switzer found ourselves in Cambridge trying to find 234, which was apparently working Galt. After checking the mainline with no luck we stumbled over him at a location once know as Finnigan. The location is right beside the large Babcock & Wilcox ant in Cambridge, a location once served by bother CN and CP as both lines run parallel to eachother there. Today the old CN name sign is long gone and the area rebuilt not to mention CN no longer runs down that far on the Fergus spur. CP also no longer has mainline trains come and work that far up the branch with all lifts and drops basically done at Wolverton. After seeing CP 234's nice consist thus day we made a run for the farmers field near the one-time end of the siding at Killean ( another name that has vanished since the siding was severed at one end. The impressive consist had SD40 6016 leading one of HLCX's former UP SD40's, as well as a CEFX AC4400 and SOO Line wide cab SD60M.
