Sunlight streams through a gap in the otherwise heavy tree line, illuminating CP 3114, 3103, and 3134 as they lift T07's 33 cars up Maryanne's Hill. There are at least 29 cars from Unimin on this train, meaning at least 29 loads. Not a big deal on the high iron, however on this line, the combination of grades and a 10mph speed limit means that a little extra is needed to keep them moving forward; no such thing as taking a run at the hill here. 1616hrs.

    Thanks, Ironhead. Been wanting this shot for sometime not in the snow, but needed an afternoon departure from Havelock for it to work. Thank you very much schedule change ;-)
