After completing the 10 Year boiler inspection started during the Covid Lockdowns, WCR #9 is seen making its first revenue trip in over 2 years! With almost 2 full train loads, #9 is seen completing 1 of 4 run-pasts of the day with the passengers and their cameras watching from a country road. Thank you to all the volunteers who put countless hours into re-assembling #9.

On the fourth day of the Waterloo Central Railway Freight Solutions contract with Lanxess in Elmira, the first run was April 12, 2022. They run 4 days a week including Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. All power being used to switch the plant is on lease from the Waterloo Central Railway, to their for-profit company Waterloo Central Railway Freight Solutions. WCRX 1012 is performing WCRFS's first switch on the north end of the plant, which is where all the flammable tank cars go. Crewing the train are Conductor Chris Fox (not pictured) and Engineer Matthew Schilling.

A rare opportunity to take a look at the Control Stand of an old GMD-1 built-in London Ontario. This particular unit spent its entire life within the CN roster until its retirement in early 2021 when it was then donated to the Waterloo Central Railway. (Taken by an Active WCR Volunteer, wearing all required PPE)

On a very short day for the BNML crew. We caught them shoving the BN Operation Caboose back into the shop. It is very uncommon for them to pull the Caboose out. Also, note the magnet Canadian Flag on the front Right of BNSF 2602, which is a GP39-3.

The last Cayuga Clipper passes the Caboose along Tower Rd, on its way to Tillsonburg, to take the rest of the cars at IGPC Ethanol in Aylmer and Future Transfer in Tillsonburg. The 2 matching F units where great for the last run on the Cayuga Clipper.
