After camping overnight nearby I was in position for the classic Morant's Curve shot at 0645. The light was perfect, there was not a cloud in the sky. SIX HOURS LATER the first eastbound of the day showed up under now cloudy skies. Feeling completely discouraged with CP I hopped in my truck and drove up to the CN in Jasper where I nailed this shot the same day http://www.railpictures.ca/?attachment_id=24673

    Quite the story, Matt. These days one can go almmost anywhere and be discouraged with the lack of CP traffic.
