CN 2912
Title:  CN 2912
Description:  The Prize! Train 562 under wind-swept skies. Still one of my favourite afternoon spots, with Lyon's Creek weaving and winding under Buchner Road. But with Xander after school pickup duty, I don't get out in the afternoons much anymore. (No school today - it's Saturday)!

CN 2912
Title:  CN 2912
Description:  My first pics ever at this location. It's only suitable for afternoon shots, and is so infrequently used, it's not practical to even keep an eye on this spur. But every now and then, I'll get lucky and catch this rarely scheduled train.

LDSX 269
Title:  LDSX 269
Description:  Sunny Monday, no boats on the canal, so it's a quick roll by at the GIO and CP yards. Never in the long glorious history of locomotives has there ever been a consist like this one. With cabless slug 269 in the lead! Followed by two newer GIO switchers 7224 and 7920, bright red JCLX GP35 3502, plus deadline Illinois Central Dash-8 2462, CN Dash-8 2019, 2 Draper Taper Dash-8s - one BC Rail, one CN, plus another CN Dash-8. And behind all that diesel-dazzle? A caboose and a box car.

CN 8952
Title:  CN 8952
Description:  Nice surprise on today's CN Train 421 coming into Port Robinson - with two Grand Trunk Railroad units sandwiching two more conventionally-attired CN locomotives. The trailing GT engine is headed for scrapping in Welland, while the working lead loco sports the striking blue/red GT Heritage livery. Very nice. Resting on the short yard stub track is CN 3142.

Title:  GTW 4620
Description:  Tingling with anticipation, I kinda got stuck behind this bush and almost missed my opportunity to get pics of the loco's backside. Or is that the front side? (That's a railran inside joke. When built, this would have been the front).
