Another demonstration of the rule that "the best trains run on the lousy weather days". Here we have a westbound CP freight, likely the Starlight, easing through the track diversion due to the construction of the Brant Street underpass in Burlington. It is led by an interesting lash-up of CP RS18 8751 in "script", GP35 5021 in the then-new CP Rail colours, and leased Illinois Central C-636 1101.
