CP AC4400 8117 began life as CP 9612. It’s interesting that during the rebuild that time and expense were given to relocating the number boards from the nose to above the cab windows. Here we find the eastbound manifest/intermodal train passing the Ardent Mill in Streetsville. The four covered hoppers at the facility are awaiting the arrival of local T14 later in the day. In the foreground is the dormant ADM spur still awaiting a revival.

The sun is putting out its last rays of the day as CN 2243 leads mixed freight including dimensional loads eastbound on Canadian Pacific rails at Chaumox. For any fellow fans who might find this spot, look back in the trees where one will find an old, nearly forgotten, grave yard. It latest markers are from the early 1940's. There is no town, no longer any residents save for the occasional bear or deer that abound in the area.

CN 120 with CN 2302 leading two ex-UP C40-8's (repainted CN 2004 and yellow CN 2001) heads east through Turcot West in Montreal. It is passing some MoW personnel who are at the switch for the Lachine spur (at left).

...continuing the single unit theme...

Single geep on a CN freight train.
<br>
<br>
Long hood forward - the way God intended....
<br>
<br>
...and a freight train with a Caboose – the way it should be....
<br>
<br>
Somewhat unusual – all the local jobs now seem to have at least 2 re-built (chop nose) geeps.
<br>
<br>
CN 4351 – Class GR 17z built GMD 1959 - is the second geep to wear this number, the first 4351 GP7 built GMD 1954 was renumbered to 4801 in 1957 and long retired. (along with 23 other sisters into the 4800 to 4823 series). CN 4351 the second (pictured here) is the future CN 7277 based in Montreal.

Photo note: with Kodachrome ASA 64 (slow ISO) and with low light necessitated a wide aperture and a slow shutter speed – likely one one hundred twenty fifth – hence the slight nose / number board blur.

Another view of the CN Trench-Cable Train:
<br>
<br>
Bet you never wondered how CN's fibre optic cable got into the ground.....the Trench – Cable train is at CN Kingston Subdivision mile 304 (near Lasco Steel - Hopkins Street ). CN plain SD-40 # 5084 is the future #6007, the other unit may be SD-40W #5339. October 1991 Kodachrome by S. Danko

Tech Note: at this time, October 1991, the debate raged on the future technology for the Oshawa GO line: a GO RT – like the Scarborough RT – was being promoted by the Ontario Government !

One of the great pastimes for train nuts like myself was wandering down to that once busy CN facility at Fort Erie and watching to see whose power would be on the daily transfers. Usually it would be Conrail, often Norfolk Southern and perhaps Chessie. But surprises abound. One of the better power combos for me, because I am a D&H fan, was this pair of RS-11s, D&H 5009 and 5005 shown here just setting foot on Canadian soil. This photo as I post it was taken just a couple of days over 30 years ago; and as of last month most of the D&H as I knew it was spun off to the NS. Life along the Susquehanna Valley in NY state will never be the same. :o( I have lost track of the travels of these units, which left the D&H probably 20 years ago; and wonder if they have met the scrapper and lost. They were built in 1961.

In late June 1972 Hurricane Agnes hit the US Northeast with heavy rain and winds. It turned out to be the most costly storm up to that time in the Northeast. Washouts and damage to bridges resulted in detours of EL and D&H trains through Canada in early July. Here, a westbound is just east Elgin Street, Bowmanville at 10 am. on July 5, 1972

Many of us foamers will recall this train. Another CN back in 2006 with BNSF-only power. Here elephant style SD40-2s and even the numbers are close - off by one digit! This was taken on the afternoon of Easter Sunday 2006.

On a hazy morning in the suburbs, GO #252, otherwise known as the 9:05 from Bramalea to Toronto, waits on the commuter track while the minutes tick down to departure. F59PH 544 sits in the lead for the trip east, looking on as a westbound CN freight passes through the station. Upon boarding GO coach 2336, we're greeted with an empty car all to ourselves: the few late morning commuters rarely walked down the platforms from the main stairways.
