Under a brilliant august morning sun in Orangeville finds GMTX 333 slowly creeping back towards Orangeville yard approaching Townline rd (right by the station and GO Bus stop) after having just finished its morning switching duties at the north end of Orangeville by Broadway rd. Only one lone empty covered hopper in tow from the Buisness Park today and it came from Rochling Engineering Plastics which is the biggest of the 3 rail customers down there. Once 333 reaches the south end of the yard they’ll then retrieve the 2 empty covered hoppers they pulled from Clorox about an hr earlier (before they ran north to Broadway rd since their spur more or less resides in Orangeville Yard itself and they are actually the second of the 2 biggest Orangeville customers also) and from there they’ll then take the 3 empties back 36 miles south to their owner CP in Mississauga. Time was exactly 0930
