I'm not really sure what this move was all about. QNSL 226 and 259 have what appears to be a baggage car and caboose in tow, and are heading North out of Sept Iles as seen in this view taken from the Highway 138 overpass. Some sort of a 'work extra'? Iron Ore Co of Canada facilities are in the background, as well as waters of the Fleuve St-Laurent.

    Another Mooney from the Boonies picture. The North Shore (Le Cote Du Nord) one day, the prairies the next. You certainly covered the country looking for and recording the railways.
