"Photo du parc" de la TTCA FP7A 1301. Construite en 1952 en tant que CP 4071, elle a ensuite été vendue à l’AMT (actuellement EXO) et a longtemps tiré/poussé des trains de banlieue sur la ligne Montréal/Dorion-Rigaud, jusqu’en 2002 où elle fut vendue au Trains Touristiques de Chaudière-Appalaches (TTCA). Le TTCA commence ses opérations en juin 2000 et propose des excursions sur le réseau du Chemin de fer Québec Central. Aujourd’hui, une partie de ce chemin de fer appartient au MTQ (Ministère des Transports du Québec) et est opéré par Chemin de fer Sartigan. La seconde partie de la ligne, qui se rend jusqu’à Thetford Mines, est en reconstruction et les trains du CFS devraient à nouveau y circuler au courant de l’année prochaine. Le TTCA mets fin à ses opérations à l’automne 2005, suite à un manque d’entretien de la voie ferrée, qui engendrera évidemment la fermeture de tout le réseau du CFQC. Fait intéressant : les unités 1301 et 1306 portaient une livrée spéciale « Le Riverain », qui était un train d’excursion mis en place par l’AMT entre la gare Windsor et Sainte-Anne-de-Bellevue. La 1301 est aujourd’hui opérée régulièrement par le Western Maryland Scenic, sous une nouvelle livrée, tandis que la 1306 a reçu la livrée du Pennsylvania Railroad et roule aujourd’hui pour un train touristique en Pennsylvanie.

Roster shot of the TTCA FP7A 1301. Built in 1952 as CP 4071, it was then sold to the AMT (now EXO) and for a long time pulled/pushed commuter trains on the Montreal/Dorion-Rigaud line, until 2002 when it was sold to the Trains Touristiques de Chaudière-Appalaches (TTCA). The TTCA began operations in June 2000 and offered excursions on the Quebec Central Railway network. Today, part of this railway belongs to the MTQ (Ministère des Transports du Québec) and is operated by Chemin de fer Sartigan. The second part of the line, which goes to Thetford Mines, is under reconstruction and CFS trains are expected to run there again next year. The TTCA ended its operations in the fall of 2005, following a lack of maintenance of the railway track, which will obviously lead to the closure of the entire CFQC network. Interesting fact: units 1301 and 1306 carried a special livery "Le Riverain", which was an excursion train set up by the AMT between Windsor Station and Sainte-Anne-de-Bellevue. Unit 1301 is now operated regularly by the Western Maryland Scenic, under a new livery, while 1306 received the livery from the Pennsylvania Railroad and now runs for a tourist train in Pennsylvania.

And now, another edition of Failure Friday.
I knew the light was bad, I knew that I tend to overdo it on car shots, but I just couldn't resist. I tried to meter for the shadows, but there's only so much you can do when your subject is in shadows and the background is brightly lit, a lesson I should have learned before.
(Exacerbating the situation was the fact that the owner of this ride was standing just outside of the frame and we were making each other nervous.)
