Comments on: CN U710 comes down grade through Brantford with BNSF 6907, BNSF 9201, CN 5625, IC 1027, BNSF 7483. This was the first of two unit crude oil trains today on the Dundas Sub.

Agree with Tim, probably the best spot in Brantford for east bounds. Nice shot Joseph.

Thanks TIm, I like to shoot here when it is possible (some days this place can be pretty busy). I used a well placed snow pile for the elevation.

Nice shot and catch. Just a personal opinion, but this angle is much better than shooting from the west end of the platform and I’d encourage more shots from here! I know Brantford doesn’t offer much for a backdrop, but the buildings in the background definitely add a lot. You can also see the entire consist which is a bonus. Cheers.
