![Four SD-40-2's spliced by GP-9 8663 have just crested the continental divide. Construction of the railway caused the creek here to have its path divided, hence the name Divide Creek. Half of the flow goes west towards the Pacific, the other half goes east. If you would like to change the world, you can take some water from one side and put it on the other.](http://www.railpictures.ca/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/85481145-SLD-14-200x150.jpg)

![Before operations began on the South Simcoe railway the equipment was stored close to Mill street. The last time I had seen the equipment it was stored near the LCBO warehouse in Toronto back in 1981. Having ridden behind 136 & 1057 in the 70's it was great to see them again.](http://www.railpictures.ca/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/Scan0002asc1-200x150.jpg)

![N 4135 has just crossed Bayfield Street with a single tank car bound for Stepan Canada in Longford Mills. This portion of the Newmarket Sub was lifted in 1996. Longford Mills is now serviced out of Huntsville and Wayne Shaw gets to take photos of it. One nice thing about the Newmarket Sub wrapping around Kempenfelt Bay was that if you heard a train you usually had time to get to a place to see it. My Blue 86 Honda Civic is to the right of the train, so I must have made a quick trip from the office. With the exception of the condo building, everything has changed.](http://www.railpictures.ca/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/Scan0002sc-200x150.jpg)
