Runner-Up

I'm not sure if it's coincidence or just my perspective but it always feels like interesting power comes out of the woodwork whenever my semester starts. Both at college a few years back and now at university. Admittedly there wasn't exactly a drought of cool things to see in the area before this, but I somehow let a good 3 or 4 years pass by since capturing one of CP's heritage units and suddenly one of them landed on my doorstep two days in a row. Amazingly the fun police in Montreal kept 7016 leading after it arrived. It may have been the first week of classes but who am I to turn that down?

 

At the last spot of the chase, train 231 is seen crossing the 1913-built trestle at Cherrywood just before sunset. I had less than a minute to jump out of the car and run to the overlook in time. Condolences to those behind me who got caught in the rush hour traffic.
