On 5/15/2016 westbound ES44AC 2823 moves through the turnouts on the very short piece of single track at Stewarttown Mile 26.6 on CN's Halton Sub just west of of Georgetown. I know that you foam..er i mean fans out there will know the answers to these questions. Why is there a broom on the front of the locomotive? What is the reason for the red light above one of the ditch lights? What are the white objects on the roof of the locomotive for?
