CN 540 or 568 trundles south to switch out Ampacet in south Kitchener with a trio of GP40 widecabs. This is a less-used stretch of the Huron Park Spur south of the CN/CP interchange, and essentially terminates at Ampacet. The spur line was also used to service the former Budd Automotive plant.

    It was 540. I wish I could have continued chasing this to Ampacet.
