The competition arrives!


Doubles at Lakeshore / Stephenson Road


Unsurprisingly, rather infrequent and especially so given both are conventional freights.


Sprinter verses Grinder.


First on the scene  is CNR 2301 ( GE ES44DC built 2008  ) east assisted by 2420 ( GE DASH 8-40CM built 1990 )  and DPU 2294  ( GE ES44DC built 2008, same CN class EF644l as 2301 ) grinding uphill through the curve at mile 281 CNR Kingston Subdivision


By comparison, CPR 8761 (  GE ES44AC built 2006  )  east assisted by 8916 (  GE ES44AC built 2011  ) sprints east at CPR Belleville Subdivision mile 155.6,  station board sign Lovekin, easily overtaking CN 2301 east on the parallel line.
