    The black and white is epic!

    I believe that UCLX tank actually got spotted at FloChem that day. Interesting they didn’t Y the unit!

    They did. This was taken after they arrived. They dropped their cars in XW20, then grabbed this tankcar, shoved it in the XV yard lead, about 1.5 car lengths past the tankcar in the photo below. They then went up the Guelph North spur to grab pole cars and likely switch Smurfit MBI. They did wye the unit, in the north end.

    An excellent exposure – you have the detail right in the shadows and that’s what matters!

    Reminds me of the film ‘Nebraska’ shot in black & White with BNSF units running lite and tank cars in the opening scene. :)
