Comments on: March!! When the days get longer and it is finally tolerable to spend time at length trackside. For a while back in 2006 the CN ran trains with all kinds of odd foreign power; and quite often leaders as well. It was paradise for the fans of such. Here is one example, this image shot as the train rolled westward over York Rd; which is the main back road into Dundas from Bayview. The time is around Noon; and BNSF 4542, 4394 and WC 7495 make this appear more like a train photographed in the USA. But it is actually Mile 2, Dundas Sub. http://www.railpictures.ca The BEST Canadian photos on the Internet, eh?

I glued it to a piece of plywood, drilled two holes where the searchlights are and inserted green & red "grain of wheat" bulbs. Then I jerry rigged a 9 volt battery and switch to light the bulbs. It was one of those brilliant ideas younger folks have.... In my younger days, I had a black and white 8X10 photo of that signal.
