CN 2039, CN 2660 and BCOL 4619 work hard to hold back the 167 cars that make up M 39491 12 as they reach the bottom of the Copetown hill. Since hitting the double track at Komoka, 394 had been struggling to keep this 10,200 foot train ahead of 148 who was operating on the north track, however at Brantford 148 got the upperhand and overtook 394. 148 had passed through Bayview 8 minutes ago with the CN 2152, CN 5689 handling 121 cars. I guess I should have gone to Brantford!

    148 the day before had 57 cars. Good to see a bigger train today

    It’s a shame it was through a little too early for my lunch, and I was swamped with work!!
