At 1018h, Train 29 barrels through Baden behind U-2-h 6235 about halfway through its Toronto - London trip. Built in July 1943 by MLW as the first of 30 U-2-h locomotives ordered by the CNR, 6235 would be scrapped in July 1961. Note the yellow, wooden derail post and the mix of crossing protection styles at the Snyder's Road (old Highway 7 and Foundry Street intersection (some wooden, some lights and bells).

    Awesome shot! What a beauty!!! Interesting that the derail is in the non derailing position?
