Even the locals are a bit awe-struck as CN's "Nanticoke" steel train rumbles up the middle of Ferguson Ave.N. in downtown Hamilton on its way up the hill thru Rymal, Caledonia, Hagersville and Garnet to the destination at the big steel facility on Lake Erie, about a 36 mile trip.
Power this day is CN 9169, 9196, 9172 with a rather short train. Caboose at each end so power can run around train upon return.

Although the line had been cleared by the passage of 697 some 4 1/2 hours previously the continuing snowfall along with the passing of a road plow made enough of a bank for 1809 to pick up some frosty sideburns as 698 hit the Old Muskoka Road crossing.

Sometimes CP would lease anything they could get their hands on, including GO power on the weekends. They'd pick it up Friday evening and return it Sunday night, in time for Monday morning. Here's 2nd 959 with F40s 513, 514, 510 and C424 4225 a tad under commuter speed. It was sweet while it lasted. Right Arnold?
