Reasonable entertainment on a crappy (but warm) dull day; seemingly a specialty of mine :o) this time out driving around featured a stop at Pointe au Baril to see 'if anything was happening'. CP 7090 was there; crane & van. Since I had brought the girlfriend along; the rail worker decided he could pass some time showing the little lady how things worked while they waited out a northbound freight. He then proceeded to operate the equipment; moving the bucket around, etc., and keeping her entertained while I watched in amusement. After about 20 minutes it was train time. Too bad it was so lacklustre a day out there; but the scene with CP 5726, 5744 and 4725 was well worth the wait.
