WC SD45 6594, at Hearst, ONT. 9/13/1994

We headed north from the CP at White River, Ont. to catch the CN action at Hornepayne. After about 5 trains, the storms come ripping through. So we figured on heading north, and then east to Hearst. This is about as far north that you can drive in northern Ontario. When we arrived at Hearst, the storms where right on our tails, and closing in fast. With the last glimpse of the sun, I captured the WC 6594. Then all hell broke loose. We then made a bee-line for Cochrane, and caught the Kapuskasing job in beautiful sun. But the storms where not far behind us...

  1. The dramatic sky and the unusually shaped structures really make this photo special for me. Thank you for sharing!
