Railpictures.ca - BPurdy Photo: As is typical, some of the best trains come in the rain and todays CP 246 was no exception. Having just got CP 143 at Guelph Junction in the pouring rain, I was ready to go home and call it a day when CP 246 got clearance down the hill. I thought I may as well wait for it, so I moved to my old faithful 1st line so I could shoot it out the window. CP 8958 was leading CP 8832 and ICE 6102 (SD40-3 with STL&H 5615 (SD40-2) along for the ride. I didn’t get a good shot of all 4 locomotives, so I got this shot at Newman Rd. The rain was cooperative for a few minutes here and stopped. | Railpictures.ca – Canadian Railway Photography
