A glimpse back 30 years ago today, April 11, 1991. A beautiful day at Bayview. It was still rather common to see some big MLWs rolling; but we all knew they were on their way out, as not that many were in the lead position any more. Not much green yet, after a typical winter. Average, I'd say. After all, the year 2021 had not much of a winter. Foliage is at least 2 weeks ahead this spring.
As seen from the Plains Rd (former hwy 2) bridge mid-afternoon; CN 9419, 2314 and 2013 rumbles westbound.

I decided to post this as a follow-up to Geoff Elliot's really nice country setting photo with #2456 in the lead, photo #45134. It was great to see an old X-LMSX on the lead; but this image presented shows not all in that series are so lucky to be out there on the line.
At the old Martech facility in Welland, a number of CN locomotives are to be stored for scrap, either on site or elsewhere I am not sure which. Here we see CN 2455, a "fallen blue" about to be pushed across Rusholme Rd by company Centre cab #615 into the the Martech fenced compound to await its' fate. This is the end of the line. Quite a few more units there will eventually meet the same demise.

On a rare Sunday operation, BCRY 1001 has just pushed a number of short 40 foot hoppers into the Penetang Spur for storage. In 2019 this spur was packed with tankcars which became surplus when oil prices tanked. With North American rail traffic presently down due to the Covid-19 virus, unused railcars have to be put somewhere, and shortline trackage is often the perfect place.

One of National Steel Car's two 50-tonners is pulling six new CP grain cars out of a building as they get ready to back the cars into another section of the plant. This unit was built in 1954 and has spent its entire career here.

The Simcoe Reformer reported on Saturday, December 7, 2013 that due to "serious infrastructure issues", Trillium Railway / St. Thomas and Eastern will cease operations December 20, 2013. Trillium Railway can not afford to make repairs to its bridges and trestles. A search of the railpictures.ca database revealed no St. Thomas and Eastern photos, so attached is my only shot of them doing anything. I had just photograph OSR, and was on my way to the SOR when I stopped in to see what TRRY was doing. The black dip paint job on TRRY 1842 isn't very inspiring, and likely why not too many people paid much attention to them. The CP stripes and Ottawa Central decals on the nose reveal the locomotive's history. Get your photos now!

Keewatin Railway's signature mixed train is seen northbound at Root Lake Manitoba with GP40-2W HBRY 3005 and M-420W KRC 2401 up front. Behind the power are a pair of flat cars bracketed by a set of HBRY 40 foot box cars followed by the passenger portion of the train. I can't remember what led me up to this portion of the country in late November but I would certainly like to do it again in the summer.

Canadian National's St. Clair Tunnel at Sarnia was too small to handle higher cars such as Double stacks so the decision was made to bore a new, larger tunnel. A special ceremony was held on Sept 16, 1993 to celebrate the start of the new bore. The old tunnel was built in 1891, 6025 ft long and had a bore diameter 19 ft 10 inches. The new tunnel would be opened in 1994 ,6129 ft long and have a bore diameter of 27 ft 6 inches.

Seen here is "Excalibore", the name of the tunnel boring machine (TBM) made by the Lovat Tunnel Manufacturing Co., ready to start on the new larger tunnel on the Canadian side. In the background, a special CN train of high-clearance cars including double stacks, an autorack and a hi-cube auto parts boxcar, sandwiched by a pair of CN GP40-2W's, sit on the tracks nearby that lead through the old St. Clair tunnel.

Stormy skies are approaching Englehart Ontario on this Saturday morning. Stormy skies are also on their way to the Ontario Northland Railway. In March the Ontario government announced that they would be divesting the Ontario Northland. After the announcement signs like these popped up all over Norhtern Ontario. To learn more about this please visit the website on the sign.

The CP RCP train slowly creeps by the old McAdam railway station. It's been a long time coming since the last time a CP train of any kind has gone by the former CP station.
