CP #124, the suppertime eastbound Expressway that ran from Detroit to Montreal is wasting no time after a meet with two westbounds at Orrs Lake. Remember when CP Rain trains? I do. This was one of four I saw in an hour after work this day, and only two months after I purchased my first Digital SLR. Oh to go back in time...

    And it looks like this photo started what we know today as the “Host puddle shot…a time for reflection” lol

    Cool that the unit numbers are all so close together.

    I read in a comment a while back that Steve has a guy in a water truck handy for these occasions. Not sure a water truck will have made this pond though. :-)

    I remember you’d see many of CP freight including Starlight on CN’s Oakville sub. Having stayed recently along the Galt sub.. you’d wait for hours to see one. Normally in the morning. Afternoon, forget about it.
