It's 0658 and getting up early had its privileges on May 23'rd, the Spray train is now on the Hamilton sub and going to turn on the wye before going south. The would get to kinnear by 0845 which meant you had to get out early. This was the 1'st year of the D*H power on the spray train, magically 7303 would come the next year, and it's been something half decent every year thereafter... but not D&H. Word of advice: when they are spraying, do keep your distance, I certainly do.. especially if you are young :)

  1. Nice! I wonder if this was the same day I caught it that year (on the way to work!). You’re times make sense; I believe I shot it at Hamilton West at around 08:15. The timing was too perfect for me to get it :)

  2. Yes it was: http://www.railpictures.ca/?attachment_id=29683

  4. Oh I am a sucker for anything posted that is D&H. :o )

  5. I think you were on vacation for both of these runs Arnold. You’ll have to do it again next spring, hasn’t been D&H since!

  6. Gents what’s with the plow in this picture? is this that notched plow third powered rail stuff I’ve heard about?
