A very nice pair of GMD, SD75i's in CN 5701.2 and CN 5707 lead windmill train 307 around the bend to mile 30 on the Halton sub. Naturally, its cold, rainy and damp when the good trains come. Being mainly a CP guy, it was sure unusual to catch seven CN trains in two and a half hours with still more to come. That could be 3 days worth in my area of the Galt sub!!!

    Sorry Rob. Its a long drive from Vancouver Island. I didn’t think you’d have enough time to drive here to get it!

    The leading end of everything has orange on it. If the cars were painted black. it totally would look like a CN train. :-)
    Nice set of 75′s.
