Caption: Yesterday’s oddball H24 brought back memories of the old CP Guelph Junction turn that up till the end of the 1990’s ran between Agincourt and the junction typically with a pair of SD40’s, often working Streetsville yard on the eastbound trip. While the branch at Streetsville is restricted to four axle power the yard lead must have been exempt. Later years found a pair of GP9’s running that turn job until it was abolished. Back then Streetsville and its industries were typically served by a local out of Guelph junction until it was relocated to West Toronto by the 2000’s. Today the power typically is just a pair of GP38’s or GP20’s. When Hornby yard was converted to a trans load facility it added much needed traffic to the local and from time to time requires larger power depending on train size. Yesterday was only the second time I have seen six axle power added for a run to Hornby. The first time it was a solo SD60, this time SD40 5920. Tho lash up guaranteed there would be no work in Streetsville and a straight shot to Hornby. After catching the westbound run I figured I’d be out of luck catching the SD40 leading the eastbound run, but it took a few hours to finally make its way back home. Unfortunately the lighting conditions deteriorated and almost got blocked by a GO train but still managed to catch the train at Meadowvale.
