Two trains meet at the Lennoxville diamond. Quebec Southern Rwy 504 and 500,at Sherbrooke Sub., wait for thru freight BAR 350, AMTK 387 and HATX 176, a Canadian-American Rwy (CDAC) train on QSR trackage, mile 66. It will cross the diamond eastward and will then be travelling on CDAC rails. The QSR local is on CN Sherbrooke Sub. trackage. The in and out sun, a fixed lens and the general lay of the land made this a difficult place to shoot.
At this time CDAC was part of the Bangor & Aroostook system (BAR).

  1. I love this shot! Well done

  2. That’s a rare shot!

  3. Thanks, Alex. I keeping thinking how much better this would look using todays high-quality cameras. The sequence of shots I took here all have unavoidable “soft spots” in the images.
