The early bird gets the worm, so the old story goes! On this day that was definitely the case. I arrived at Bayview at 0655, which was a little later than I had planned but still early enough on this day. I soon learned that #384 was stopped on the hill in emergency and was setting up retainers before proceeding. Fifteen minutes later he came flying around the corner onto the Oakville Sub. That was the only eastbound around until #670 arrived and by then the clouds had rolled in. It definitely paid to get up with the sun!
