CP 119 through Cherrywood with a odd choice of power! Pair of CN gevos leads the way from Mtl with a huge string of solid auto racks.

In September 2020, I made several day trips to the Bessemer to shoot the daily ore train with IC SD70's, just thinking that something is going to happen to these standard cabs eventually. The change wasn't long in coming. One of the classic Bessemer shots that was much more elusive than it should have been is this view at the Orr Rd bridge near Mercer. We've all been there, didn't plan correctly, CF'd at the last minute, ... Third time was the ticket on 9/23/2020

We're in Montreal's Taschereau Yard shop building, looking at GP38-2 4724 who's sitting quietly in Bay 18, waiting for the night shift to come and start readying the engine for some well needed work on it.

CN fleet of 38-2 slowly made into a partial rebuilt program, a good idea since almost nothing got upgraded since almost 40 years.

With the escarpment impeding on the sun, CN 149 is about to take the curve at Milbase, seen here thundering past the switch to the glass lead.

CN L517 strolls west a few hours after leaving Belleville with 4 units and 16 cars. Later in Oshawa to lift a good 7000 ft of extra cars, along with planned to get more at Ajax. The Ajax stop was canned due to them being very short on hours after the countless slowdowns.

An ET44AC is the sole power on windmill train CN X319 as it departs Turcot Ouest after a crew change just a bit under a year ago. These trains stopped running this past winter, as the builder of these blades have shifted to building larger products that can only be shipped by boat.

CN 5322 leads train A434 at Brantford as they stop to make a lift. On a night that was very stormy I got lucky with them stopping to work here.
