This Curve I Shot Often

Just railroad east of Kinross the SOO/WC rounded a nice curve that was readily accessible from the highway and in SOO days unlike a good part of the track(which used to be pit run) east of Trout Lake had been lifted with clean white crushed rock Being it was easy to get to and the track structure looked good I always favorited it over the curve south of Dafter that I posted a couple days ago. CN doesn't run an evening westbound in this area and I haven't shot either curve in close to 15 years. I'd guess like most everything else they probably are grown in with brush. WC 6501 and 2500 sail west with SOGLA on June 10, 1997. The SOGLA symbol didn't last long soon becoming SOGBA and oddly when the westbound SOGLA was running its eastbound counterpart was GBSOA as far as I remember. You can see the WC had done some serious track work in the area with a couple lifts of gray rock mixed in with the old SOO white rock that was used on this curve back in the early 80's.
