Beautiful but cold Monday afternoon out at Copetown. I had heard of a train coming over the detector (mile 15.8)as I was driving along Governor's Rd, which parallels the line, so scurried in at Copetown (approx. mile 10) in order to grab a shot. Nice fresh snow and no one around, so rather than just shoot the train I elected for a scenic shot. Pity the view is a bit backlit, but thats the way it goes. What a nice #394!!!  CN 5618, WC 7518, BNSF 507, 6312, CN 5701, 5603 and 6019. Managed a couple of shots at Hamilton West as well, but much preferred this one. That mill building won't be around much longer by the look of it. Many years ago, the old Copetown station was located here.
