The ONR Ditcher #1 heads northbound to Englehart on the Temagami Subdivision through Cobalt, ON at the old mining headframe and around the curve of Cobalt Lake. The Angus shops-built van on the tail end makes for a nice subject, with the power crawling down the line in the distance. Cobalt has always been a very unique spot on the ONR that I've always wanted to shoot. The power of the ditcher would be brought down to North Bay on 214 the following day.
