Comments on: 559′s train is already assembled and ready to go, as it sits in the western end of Mont-Joli yard in the evening, and will depart towards Rivière-du-Loup the following morning. I was lucky to be able to shoot the parked train along with its engines, as usually the engines are parked at the center of the yard, making them hard to shoot. These two widecab geeps made for a rather nice start of the year, on the previous day, i caught them haul the Matane train back near Price. Even though i couldn’t get any pictures as the train ran late, wet rails and roaring engines rewarded me of a nice auditive experience. Still got a picture in the end!
