The benefits of having the Windsor Subdivision right behind the place you work at can be quite challenging at times. Especially while having to work, hearing trains rolling on by as many as 6-7 in an 8 hour shift! However, every once in awhile, patience pays off and luck is on your side when you are on an afternoon break. With only 15 minutes to spare, I quickly walked over to the West Street crossing, and sure enough, just after 5 minutes of watching, this freight rolled on through. CP 2319 leads the charge, with a second similar unit behind it, and a larger unit trailing as the third engine. Normally it would be reversed with a large unit leading the charge, but not today. I like the smaller units as that CP red shows off better against the 'spring green' budding in the trees.
