Eastbound CN train 422 originating in Port Robinson is passing through CN Snake where it crosses over to Track 1, with high-cube boxcar loads of auto parts for Ford in Oakville at the front end. Three different GE locomotives power the train - ES44ac, ET44ac, and ES44dc. The foreman's pickup truck heading west on Track 2 surprised me, meeting 422 here. This viewpoint is more enjoyable while the ticks are dormant.

    Pretty sure ticks are active starting at 4 Celsius haha so watch out. They were already active in Norfolk County last month

    Pesky ticks – I will resume precautions. It helps that the grass is currently dead and lying close to the ground.
    422 picked up 3 more units in Aldershot Yard to drag along to Mac Yard: IC 2703, CN 3848, and CREX 1525. But don’t have a spot near Aldershot East that enables a good picture of all six together.
