OSR waits at the 1 mile approach signal to Carew Diamond with a pair of SW1200's and 5000 feet of train - CP 242 was handing off 6000' of autoracks to the CP Pender (Toyota) job ahead of OSR on the Galt sub. One has to like the backyards seen here - the railway having been integrated into the landscaping by neighbours.

    Thanks. These would be great properties to own.

    I can now understand why you won’t see many angles like this because they were stopped and I was on the track.

    The crew offered me a ride this day – I was driving to Sarnia with my family. I had to decline. I do have cab photos though :)
