CP M636 4734 and RS18 8757 operating on an eastbound freight (green flags and class lights denote this as the first section of a timetable freight) smoke it up as they accelerate their train out of Guelph Junction, passing by the derail near the east end of the south siding. The head end has two stock cars, a dimensional load of construction machinery (possibly a large off-highway truck) on a flatcar, and empty open autoracks.

  1. Great photo and a nice stretch of the throttle for the camera. When trackside it was essential to be on the lookout for a train wearing green.
