Climbing the dip just east of Georgetown, Ontario, possibly the final CN Q144 roadrailer rushes by on it's way to Mac Yard. A solo SD75I powers this train, which will be missed.

    What makes one think it’s one of the last trains?

    Until the last one actually occurs…. could be months, could be days we don’t know?

    JP your best bet is it usually runs overnight to first thing in the morning around Georgetown (0800-1000). Anything is possible though.

    Jacob, 144 is usually nocturnal…odds are the last train will be at night as well.
