Back in the late '90's and early 2000's I had the opportunity to work "up North" quite a bit, supporting Offices from Sudbury to Rainy River, Ontario.  There were numerous locations to shoot trains along the way so I always had my camera with me.  Here's a lucky one from a return trip from Fort Frances to Thunder Bay.  Had the radio going and happened to hear a CN train calling a signal on the CN Kashabowie Sub.  As the line is only visible in a few locations from Highway #11 I quickly turned around and went back west to the last 'open' spot where the main was visible  Shortly there after I could hear rumbling of the train approaching.  Here is CN 5336 West, Train #337, heading from Thunder Bay to Fort Frances on April 17, 1996.  I really miss all those trips up north....
