Comments on: Winter not far off as a trio of CN SD40s leads a train from Fort Erie northward (read: west) to Port Robinson and beyond. Power is CN 5035, 5040 and 5xxx. The Netherby diamond was removed in the ’90s; the line now is only the Welland Tube Spur off a connection a tenth of a mile or so behind me in this pic, running to the right over Hwy 140. Traffic from Martech and the Welland Tube plant is fairly frequent, interchanging with CN Southern Yard. The section removed ran east to CP Brookfield. http://www.railpictures.ca The BEST Canadian photos on the Internet, eh?

I could be wrong.. I was very new then and I had made a couple trips down there but knew nothing. Jacob 108 was assigned to Welland Tubes in 2022, in 2021 it was the GMTX unit.

Neat to see a shot with the diamond still in place. @NiagaraMike11: isn't S13 108 assigned to Martech and Welland Tube? I thought GMTX 340 was off lease. Great scene Arnold.
