Dancing through the snow, CP 235 sports a foreign leader as they make track speed for Toronto. Unbeknownst to the crew, the WILD detector at 42.6 is about to go off, cutting short the track speed journey and forcing a set-off at Guelph Junction. Poor crew, not a good day for a set-off 60 cars back... But a great day for a photo (If you like Winter, that is). Brrrrrrrrrrrr.

    Those wild detectors only seem to come alive in cold weather!

    Nice wintery shot Steve. I think I shot this engine on 235 on Feb. 14. These UP SD90s have been kicking around on CP a lot lately.
