With a pair of GP9s for power, The Pender Job backs its train into a siding along the Ayr Industrial Spur on a gorgeous Victoria Day evening. About half an hour after I took this photo the train dropped its sole hopper car on the ground when proceeding back onto the Galt Sub at the wye.

    Agreed – well done – glad this job is mostly Daylight now – never used to be… been hoping to get out here and shoot it some day :)

    Thanks for the comments, Aivo and Steve! This was definitely a nice way to end an otherwise mundane day trackside.
