I'll admit this shot looks like I was caught and 'making a run for it' but actually it was planned. I knew big changes were coming to this area; with the soon to happen demise of the old Canada Crushed Stone facility; not much left but the Screenhouse (above train), part conveyor (over the track) and the rails on the right leading down to lower operations. The LRC-2 VIA locomotives I already found tiresome yet they were relatively new. Nice that the paint still looked fresh on the 6907 west. This scene I did not duplicate very often.

    Definitely an area I wish I could have explored before it was removed. I guess you felt the same about the LRC’s as I do the Seimen sets, lol

    Agreed, Marcus. You see one Siemen Set, you’ve seen them all.

    Did you ever get any shots of anything on the lower track?

    Nothing going in and out, Docta; but several of the switcher that worked the dolomite facility down in there. Posted them years ago on RP.
