On the mid-afternoon of Monday the 18th of November 2019 - DB Cargo's "Maritime" liveried #66162, "Maritime Modal Five"; runs though the shadows as she heads north at Powderham Castle Foot Crossing, beside the River Exe estuary; returning to Riverside Yard in Exeter during a "Route Leaner" run to Par and back.
With the fog lifted and a little under two miles on the river under our belt, a stop at the railway's Spanish River crossing just west of the small hamlet of Sheahan for the Budds was in order. The Spanish River was an important route historically, at Lake Pogamasing just around the corner from here one of the larger Hudson's Bay Company trading posts was established in 1869 for fur trading and its strategic location in competition with the North West Company. Ultimately it was the building of the CPR that led to the demise of the fur trading, but the railway opened up the area for logging with several companies operating here from 1891 to the 1930s with even a mill popping up towards the end of that time. Birch now line the river banks, typically a place with sandy soil that old growth white pine thrive in, but those were profitable, low hanging fruit for logging operations. Birch of course is thin and spindly making it almost useless for lumber, and grows like wildfire if left unattended. The colourful and rugged terrain provides a picturesque backdrop for VIA’s #186 as it glides east across the river with its trusty trio of RDCs, a meet with 119 at Pog next up on deck - MP 23.26 CPKC Nemegos Sub.
Somewhere in New Mexico...or was it Arizona?!
Route 66
Pieces of Route 66 that people no longer drive on...very cool! We drove on the piece on the right and Jean-Paul took that photo of me on the bridge!
I heard one pundit say we need a Chapter 66 Bankruptcy for the states as Illinois and California clearly need this option after decades of mismanagement. chapter 66 since both states anchor the ends of the road.

NR30 and NR15 guide 6KB8 towards Acacia Ridge. This was one of the final Great Southern services of the 2023/24 season and was affected by flood-related track works down south, leading to a morning arrival within QLD. The luxury train ran an altered route through NSW to bypass these track works, offering unique off-train experiences for guests and adding an extra 15 hours to the train's total travel time. The Great Southern typically arrives on a Sunday afternoon in Acacia Ridge where most spots in QLD are backlit, so the diversion afforded some lovely morning light up here.
