Even a shortline can be busy when there's work required. After their run up from Streetsville to interchange traffic, Orangeville-Brampton Railway's lone power, CCGX GP9 1000, switches the single hopper brought back on the return trip onto a cut of cars in the yard. Conductor Steve Bradley is diligently riding the end of the hopper to make the joint, while engineer Wayne leans out of the cab window and works the controls of his 1957 London-built steed. A fuel truck from the local fuel dealer would soon show up to fill the Geep, and after some light servicing by the crew, 1000 would be put away for the day. In the background, ex-VIA Rail RDC-9 6006 sits on the station track coupled to the rest of the Credit Valley Explorer consist, that was receiving some attention from a few individuals before its next upcoming tourist excursion.
