Comments on: This was such an unusual incident. I posted a photo more than 12 years ago of the train crews trying to push this boat off the track to no avail. Figured this scene needed a revisit. Luckily for all involved; a meet was to occur here, and the northbound train was just going into the siding and as a result the southbound pictured was moving rather slowly. In this shot the boys are talking over what to do about this situation, (note the CP truck) and it turned out that all involved could not budge this boat, so the fork lift used by the boat storage place up on the hill came to the rescue. I was just driving along and I heard the chatter on my scanner, which resulted in me showing up here. It appeared that, rolling over a very bumpy access road, the straps on the boat gave way and it slid off the trailer. I didn’t ask questions. My presence was not appreciated. SB power in the photo consists of a pair of SD90MAC, 9147 and 9153. http://www.railpictures.ca The BEST Canadian photos on the Internet, eh?
