Those little GMD SW9 switchers were not exactly common on CP. They only had 6 on the roster. And here are three of them, at rest between switching Agincourt Yard. CP 7403, 7402 and 7405. These units, part of an order 7400-7405 were built in 1953 and eventually renumbered in 1982/83 to 1200-1205 before being rebuilt/sold/retired.

As usual, I seem to be out more on crappy days than good ones, and I see this is no exception. But it was a day off work and you have to take what you can get.
It is late March and I preferred the flurries coming down rather than rain.
CN 1388 and 1355 are seen here upon their return from Hamilton. I think this is train #555, but not sure, as I did not mark the photo. I do miss these old SW switchers; they seemed so reliable and practical from a fans' point of view. Once, they seemed to be everywhere.
In this image, the tall stack in the background is the site of the former Burlington Brick plant. The area is all homes now; brick plant is history.

Since around mid-2013, foreign power has become not all that uncommon on the CP Leduc sub. Especially seen are BNSF and UP units, such as this UP ES44AC, though I've also spotted some belonging to NS and CN. If the 5501 leading wasn't enough, the end DPU was UP 5500!

CN 4022 has finished switching Ingenia and has returned downtown to run around four cars intended for delivery to SC Johnson. On their trip west along the old LE&N, the rails would spread under the fourth car causing it to derail, thus only 3 cars made it to SC Johnson that day. That awful looking railway crossing eventually got rebuilt, and a few years after that SC Johnson stopped shipping by rail and the line now lies dormant. The old TH&B station in the picture was a popular restaurant for years until the building was gutted by fire. The station was rebuilt and is now a very shady looking night club.

One of the problems with photography in the mountains in the Fall is that the sun takes a while to reach the tracks. It will still be some time before this scene is warmed by direct sunlight.
We were returning to Edmonton from the Alta-Mont railfan event in Essex with my brother from Halifax, and decided to take the long way home by going through Kicking Horse Pass. We caught this Sulphur train leaving Field. We did not linger, though. These trains were rather odoriferous.

Sporting a fresh coat of yellow and blue, ex-CP FP7 1418 and ratty script-livery CP RS10 8576 Handles VIA's "The Canadian" out of Toronto northbound over CN's Newmarket Sub through Concord (Vaughan), passing the old Vaughan Acres Industrial Lead at Mile 14.8 that branched off to serve the <a href=http://jpeg2000.eloquent-systems.com/toronto.html?image=ser12/s0012_fl1969_it0301.jp2><b>industrial area around Bowes Road</b></a>, just north of present-day Rivermede Road. South of here down at Highway 7 was once the former location of CN's Concord Station, which had fallen out of use in the 1970's and was demolished a year earlier in 1978 (see Arnold Mooney's photo <a href=http://www.railpictures.ca/?attachment_id=8883><b>here</b></a>).<br><br>The mixed consist of blue & yellow ex-CN and stainless steel ex-CP passenger cars was typical for VIA at the time, as was the steam generator-equipped CP RS10 (since the remaining Alco/MLW 244 power was being phased-out during this time, CP wasn't spending any money on painting units facing retirement). But, former CN and CP passenger units sold to VIA tended to remain separate and didn't mix with each other in the same consists, with the exception of ex-CP units upgraded to CN standards by Pointe St. Charles shop for VIA (the 6550+ and 6650+ F-units). Both roads also often supplied backup power to VIA - in CP's case it was usually their handful of GP9's and RS10's equipped with steam generators, as was the case here.<br><br><i>David M.
