The sight of a potash train in Southern Ontario is definitely a rare occurrence. Here we see a re-routed train #781 passing the still mainly dormant landscape at the well known railfan hangout at Scotch Block, Mile 30 of the Halton subdivision. The detour was due to a wash out in Northern Ontario, and the train also had an ES44AC as mid train DPU.
