Very nice flash shot. Is this the new tie up location since Preston? Being so close to the Yard, why don’t they tie up there?

Thanks Brad.

No, this was just a location they parked at in Guelph as there were summer heat restrictions on the Fergus Spur by CN during that time. 542 was going to proceed from here to Flo-Chem on the spur early the next morning before the restrictions took effect. At this point they were either tying down in Guelph or in Cambridge still if they ended their day there.
