Technology from many decades ago still lingers at Ontario's other Guelph Junction, in Guelph. Not just the aging Geeps but the numerous telephone poles that line the right of way that were once such an essential part of communicating to the outside world. Typically one unit or as of lately the slug set are assigned to train 582 out of Preston, but this day the power typically used by train 580 was assigned to it. The train is in the process of switching from the southern portion of the Fergus sub. to the northern portion as there is no diamond connecting to two sections here. After switching the Guelph north spurs the train will meet up with 580 in the yard to swap crews and cars.
