Things are looking more than a little hazy around CN's Stuart Street yard in Hamilton, as four GMD SW1200RS units (CN 1250, 1315, 1249 and 1254) on an eastbound freight coat the yard in a blue-white haze of diesel exhaust as they switch cars. 

Things of interest in this scene include the BC Rail bulkhead flatcars, CN 40' boxcars in the yard, a snowplow on the track to the side, and the high level York Blvd bridge in the background by Hamilton Junction.
