L580 is holding at switch HD 41 (base plate 36E) to allow Brush Cutter CN 69115 access to switch/siding HD 33-35.  Rail CAT 325F had to make a hasty retreat from the south for repairs after blowing a hydraulic hose. Taken within sight of home while respecting safe distancing and minutes before the sun popped out.

This photo is submitted in recognition of the patriotic crew of L580 for displaying the Canadian Flag on the lead unit (both directions) as a timely tribute to the essential workers and those helping to keep our communities and country going during this pandemic.  Our heartfelt thanks to all those who are working directly with the public during this time of crisis – your efforts and courage are truly appreciated!

  1. Very nice Glenn! What’s for sale? The shovel?

  2. Keeps one guessing … a little humour helps to lighten up these otherwise dark days.
