I suppose it is a bit odd to post a dead-of-winter type shot in the heat of summer. But for some people, such as myself, winter is an adventure. It sure beats sweating to death in the humidity of Summer Southern Ontario. The shiver season was getting late when this image was captured. It is already March. SOO 6025, UP 2947, CP 5909 and CEFX 3157 makes for a colourful photo, running at speed thru the snow at Mile 38 approaching Smithville. The symbol #388 denotes a grain train, and it is heading Stateside to the Port of Albany, NY. I've not seen a Grain Train thru here in quite a few years.
