Railpictures.ca - Stephen C. Host Photo: Winter’s here – atypically early for this part of Southern Ontario – and snow fighting has already begun. A whoosh of snow is exiting the right of way thanks to a gas powered leaf blower operated by one of OSR’s track maintainers, and a whoosh of MLW diesel exhaust exits OSRX 181 as Job 1 shoves cars up grade into PDI’s new Massey Rd facility in Guelph. | Railpictures.ca – Canadian Railway Photography

And to see photos of Job 2 – JA posted a couple shots from earlier in the day. Job 2 (1000 start) generally works the lower end (lower yard/PDI Elizabeth St/PDI Liquids ex Huntsman/Owens Corning) and Job 2 works the north end (PDI Massey, AOC, Traxxside and the interchange). Two jobs only occur a couple times a month and are subject to usual whims of traffic and change – ie: Job 1 and 2 can be seen in the north end at the same time some days.. (along with GEXR who is usually in town also)
