One of the freshest faces on the CN roster (CN 3015) glides downgrade with train # 148 while Dundas displays all of its autumnal glory.

CN 148 descends the Niagara Escarpment with a train of pure stacks stacks from Chicago. This is an alternate view of the same train seen in my previous shot.

CSX 7594 hustles Canadian Pacific train # 142 through rural Flamborough, Ontario on a sunny Thanksgiving Monday. Thanks to some almost systematic delays on CP's end, the sun had swung around far enough for a decent broadside shot. Thanks to the BBM folks for keeping me posted!

Still looking relatively fresh, CN 2926 guides train # 382 down the Dundas Sub on the approach to Bayview Junction. Despite the cold and cloudy weather, the fall foliage made up for the lack of sun. A trip back to Hamilton wouldn't be complete without shooting an eastbound here!

The OSR in downtown Ingersoll is the epitome of small-town railroading in Ontario. This a scene that I have tried to capture on multiple occasions but one that has always proved to be a bit challenging. However, this morning all of the elements came together. Under stormy skies, OSR 1400 (an ex-CN FP9A) is seen creeping across Thames Street with sister unit 1401. Thanks to convenient sucker-hole, my envisioned scene had come to life.
