Fantastic shot, Matt! This photo brings back a lot of fond memories of tubing on the lake at Buena Vista, SK when I was a kid. I remember watching a handful of trains pass by while there, too. Any idea how much traffic this line sees nowadays?

Thanks Ryan. The line sees a good level of traffic but can be tricky to get something going the right way at the right time of day. The vast majority of traffic on this line is potash and grain, neither of which follows any predictable operating pattern.
