Following the passenger trains this morning on the Algoma Central was a rare daylight extra north, the reason the steel mill was expecting to go on strike and they emptied the yard of steel loads. Here a five unit beast of a train struggles upgrade out of Sault Ste. Marie with 117 cars mainly all steel loads of some kind heading for interchange with the CP at Franz or the CN at Oba - impressive for sure - August 4, 1990.
Resting in the enginehouse / shop off the covered turntable in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario is a Algoma Central GP38-2 and a couple GP7's resting between runs - August 6, 1989.
Not as sharp as I would like it to be. It was cold as hell, and I had no tripod.

The official location of this Algoma Central train is Helen siding on the Michipicoten branch which ran west out of Hawk Junction on June 23, 1992. The smelter was later closed, with both it and this branchline being removed in the late 90's.

Dope ACR i saw as I left Souplantation. I talked to the owner and was surprised to find that he lives 2 minutes away from me. He had a bunch of carbon fibre work done to the interior that looked great. I loved this shot and editing because it was the first time I really used cloning. Feedback on the editing? Im not trying to be annoying but really do view it on black (L), it looks so much better. Thanks
