Comments on: Finally a photo worthy H24. I have to say this is the first time I have caught it with a six axle unit. This I’m sure only happened as they did not work Streetsville. Long hood forward SD60-3 6309 made its way to Hornby this morning and then is seen following train 134 to Toronto at a limited speed thanks to the lack of an end of train device.

It seems that’s the unit they are using for H24 or H14. Right now I saw the unit reverse here at Lambton and there’s a lone GP38-2 3708 sitting in front of the office. I’ll hop out and see what’s happening.

I would imagine the use of this unit on H24 is a bit restricted as I can’t imagine it is allowed on any of the branches and spurs they serve.

Sorry H24. Lovely unit with the Beaver scheme.

Yes 6309 has been docked here at Lambton and there has been discussion for it’s use of it. Normally H14 has a GP38-2 and an ECO GP20. But as of late two GP38-2′s as apparently the crews like them better. So I was wondering about this unit. Nice catch Marcus

A clean standard cab going the correct direction on a sunny day? I hope grabbing a lottery ticket was your next stop.
