Railpictures.ca - Marcus W Stevens Photo: Through most of the year it is almost impossible to get eastbound trains nose lit here, never the less the location up on the hill at the curve at mile 30 is still one of my favourite spots on the Halton subdivision. CN’s SD75′s didn’t excite me for long when they were new but these days any lash up that has EMD’s outnumbering GE’s is worth a shot :) A pretty decent mix of units here including a repainted BC Rail #4618 and GTW #4929. Interesting that the SD60 and not the Dash-8 is making all the smoke this day. Veteran GP9 rebuild #4138 finishes off the consist. | Railpictures.ca – Canadian Railway Photography
