Railpictures.ca - Dan Dell'Unto Photo: With the sun going down and dinner hour approaching, it was time to land the drone and head back home…almost. After hearing CN #399 depart MacMillan Yard, sticking around for one last train was in order. Fresh-looking rebuilt AC44C6M CN 3323 (outshopped six months earlier by Wabtec/GE) leads ES44AC 2955 through the equilateral turnouts at the east end of Humber on the Halton Sub, about to cross Islington Avenue and then the Humber River bridge. Manufacturing and factory buildings along Vinyl Court are visible on one side of the tracks, including the local forklift manufacturing facility. On the other side is grown-in empty land between the tracks and Highway 407 ETR (I’ve been informed that, years before the 407, it was once all farmland full of onion fields back in the day, that this City of Vaughan Archives image confirms). | Railpictures.ca – Canadian Railway Photography
