The "CP Rail System" returned for Canada Day of 2024!  

CPKC 2-H92 (although it was reported with various other symbols) hauls through Thamesford just after 11 AM with the "rescue" unit for 135 a few days prior - 'Dual Flag' SD40-2 #5743.  I and many others thought for sure that this unit would have been wyed in Windsor or Detroit for the return trip east - but somehow, it emerged out of Walkerville Junction just after 6 AM in the lead position of (at the time) 134.  This was a good day to not sleep in.  This was one of two mainline SD40-2 leaders in the year for London and the surrounding area.  It was great getting to see everyone out and about for this one.
