Comments on: For D&H fans, this is about as exciting as it gets in Ontario. I was profoundly shocked to see on a nice warm afternoon in late October a pair of ‘lightning stripes’ roll off the International Bridge at Fort Erie. And doubly so when they proceeded to take the old ‘Dunnville’ line (gone now) which curved west along the south side of the CN shop area. This photo shows a mini-conference as I guess they wanted to make sure they knew what the procedure was, as this was a very rare move. I had never seen it before nor since. The transfer pulled down the Dunnville Sub in order to back the train around the Wye and into the yard for reasons I never did find out. Normally the transfers run directly into the yard, drop their train and then reverse up the next track to pick up traffic to take back to the States. Not today. And a pair of old smokey 1961 era RS-11s!!!! This D&H fan from way back was in a state of advanced dribbling and drooling, I can tell you that!!! For the record, power is D&H 5009 and 5005.
