Field of dreams. I have to admit I’d have a problem staying focused playing soccer here, LOL. Years ago not just CN, but NS and its predecessors plied these rails. I’ve shot a few trains on this bridge over the years but this is the first time I have caught Gio Rail here. It’s unfortunately the Ford plant west of here is long gone as it provided several daily opportunities to photograph trains here. Today most trains caught on the bridge are simply using it for head room while they work the small CN yard to the east. Here LDS leased GP38 2003 and GP9U 1597 work their GIO Rail train  of solid tank cars before lifting 3 cars and heading back east.
