Standing on what I am sure was a platform at the old site of the CP station in Tilbury, I was able to chase and successfully catch this eastbound train led by 9808. Part of the intrigue was the BNSF unit, third in line. But also the slow mover that it was. It met a westbound, and looking back I wish I stayed in my spot as the lighting was better here for that westbound than it was at home base in Chatham. Guess it proves that sometimes, you can't get them all. But it makes you appreciate the ones you do catch!

  1. Steerable trucks are a favourite. It’s neat watching them move and articulate as they move through switches etc.
