Now with his dozen grain cars and shoving home we see 2574 on the tail end of his train shoving the 20 odd kilometers back to Sombra where he will be able to run around his train. Due to a derailment the day before, the siding in Wallaceburg was put out of service. Although the crew was none to happy about this long shove home, it topped off the last CSX mainline run for not only us but the old employees who fondly remember such a thing back in the days of cabooses. Friends, family and fellow railfans were all out to see this historic last run of the line and what a way to end an era of mainline action for CSX here in Southwestern Ontario.
