Comments on: Following up on Jason Noe’s recent upload of SOR in Copetown in 1998, here’s one of them on the return trip from Ingenia in the final weeks of their runs to and from Brantford. I wasn’t much of a photographer back then, as I was still pretty new to the hobby, but I am glad I at least shot them in Copetown a couple of times. I shot the final return trip from Ingenia /a>several weeks later in Hamilton and shot them in Brantford a couple of times too.

2111 on 435 today, apparently heading back to RLHH.

Thanks for the insight Joseph. Here is a picture of it from back then, http://www.rrpicturearchives.net/showPicture.aspx?id=3172711. It certainly explains the bell and feels right at home leading with the longhood.

That would be because 2111 is an ex NS high hood

Yeah the bell is a nice touch eh Larry? And Jason I didn’t even notice that wave until a few weeks ago when I dusted this image off thinking I might share it one day.

And you got “the wave” too. Getting SOR on the Burford was always on my list, however it never worked-out due to the timing and work, etc. It’s good the final runs and regular trips before are well documented, as well as the G&W orange on the Dundas.

With the bell hanging up top like that, it really does look set up for longhood forward operation.
