There is something addictive about capturing photos in Kitchener with the landmark H Krug factory in the background. Over my last two decades of photography I have captured a colourful array of locomotives here from CN to GEXR power in all colours, from Railtex to RailAmerica to GW. These days orange and black are most common, but the background still remains for the most part the same as it was almost a century ago. This nights power consists of units used by both trains 431/432 as well as 580.

    This is the same spot then as the photo posted by Iain Murray a few days ago with a VIA train parked here. You’re right about the building, it adds a lot of character to a rail photo. You 2 fellows did an excellent job using it as a background. The shutter must have been open quite some time for your shot, the flags had time to wave and become blurred. Very nicely done Marcus. :-)
