Railpictures.ca - Eric Fallas Photo: Work season is starting to pick up speed in Ontario with the second work train already beginning to dump rail along sections of the MacTier Subdivision before May. The trailing unit CP 8047 led from Chicago, planning to be replaced with the pair 6080/5988. 5988 unfortunately faced some issues prior to departure, then bringing 8047 back into the picture by Toronto diesel. It sounded like a plan to make 8047 lead did exist but did not come to fruition and successfully evaded the wye. Here it rounds past Avenue Road’s underpass with the CP North Toronto Station Clock Tower enjoying its retirement as a beacon for LCBO customers. | Railpictures.ca – Canadian Railway Photography
