Once a common sight here in Niagara, foreign power leading has been a massive rarity on the Grimsby Subdivision. This was a throwback train in many of ways. This was the first BNSF leader on the Grimsby Sub since 2014. First foreign power leader since 2019. First CN 523 since 2020. And first all autoparts cars train since 2006 likely. Everything about this train screamed rare and I wasn't gonna miss it, despite the almost whiteout conditions.
