CP 254 has had a pair of ES44ACs for weeks, but recently one of the GEs was replaced with a pair of SD60s.  After departing London mid-day as it usually does, they seemed to take forever and a day to get to Wolverton, work Wolverton, and finally get on their way again.  Even heading south on the Hamilton Sub. took unusually long to get to Desjardins, perhaps because of on-going track work.  Any way, working remotely from my car longer than I anticipated, I finally managed to get a photo of CP 254 emerging from the shadows to cross Milburough Line, north west of Carlisle, at 5:19 p.m.  Just like the old man always says about CP, "Hurry up and wait."  Hopefully this consist bounces back and forth a few times. Good luck!
