No More COFC
Once the COFC traffic disappeared in August 1985 the SOO promptly annulled trains 909/910 from Soo Yard to Gladstone and the changed the schedule on 911 from its 3AM departure to 5PM out of Soo Yard and 912 from its 3PM departure out of Gladstone to a 1 AM start. That put 911 through Trout Lake after dark a good part of the year and 912 often through before daylight. On September 1, 1985 I shot 911 strolling through the yard at Trout Lake with 771 and 756 leading 24 cars. Within a couple weeks it would be to dark for shots of 911 until the following spring.
