Railpictures.ca - Jacob Patterson Photo: With 90 cars on the drawbar, L502 makes it’s trek down the Hagersville Sub under a 10mph slow order due to the ongoing heat wave. After clearing the Dundas Sub main at Brantford, 502 would wait for over half an hour to get a clearance from the RTC, and allow a foreman to get his TOP and patrol the track ahead. Here the train is seen dawdling up to Middleport Road en route to Garnet, but it will make a stop at Hagersville to set off 10 cars on account of Garnet yard being full. | Railpictures.ca – Canadian Railway Photography
