Two Canadian Pacific freights meet at Coakley, east of Woodstock around Mile 86 of CP's Galt Sub. An MLW C424 and RS18 lead a westbound with some open autoracks full of new automobiles on the head-end, while the other freight is an eastbound with a pair of back-to-back RS18's in charge. The old CP maroon and grey "script" livery was still prominent on the railway in the early 70's, just a few years after CP introduced their new "CP Rail" livery and branding.

    The right of way is so clean – the Pittock Dam project and mainline re-alignment was only a decade before this.. IMHO if not less
