Beautiful picture Ryan.I rail-fan Hamilton on a regular basis and have never seen a 5000 class diesel yet—great catch

Management trains are assigned power from the Expressway, whatever it happens to be, and sometimes a cut of these cars, sometimes it’s light power.

They seem to run about twice a week and usually after 246 (depends on 246′s timing)
