We followed E271 from Snider to Milton and made it there well before CN 8952 and a sea of autoracks came down the chute. But not before a bunch of clouds fucked our shot real nice.

The Wisconsin Central heritage unit shoves east light power on the Halton Sub from Brampton Intermodal term. into Mac Yard off a Q102...

I know people gave CN flack for fucking up the scheme on this thing, but considering the JUNK that CSX has been dropping lately, it could be a lot worse.

The GTW heritage SD70M-2 heads up CN E271, empty autoracks for Flat Rock, Michigan, rolling to a crew change stop at Snider West on the Halton bypass track, just outside MacMillan Yard.

No longer are the days where a quintet of blue and red Geeps could be found racing down CN rails between Montreal and Chicago, hauling Railrunner hotshots with trailers riding inside wellcars, but a heritage unit in 2021 will suffice, I suppose...
