CN 2419
Title:  CN 2419
Description:  Train 331 a split-second after smashing through the residual snow piles left behind by the plows at the crossing. This is a REALLY long-distance shot so not as crisp as I usually like, but I love the way the snow is wrapping right around the entire locomotive - like some icy vortex.

BCOL 4609
Title:  BCOL 4609
Description:  Ice cold, bitter winds, and just one train at Port Robinson today. But it turned out to be a beauty! Just before noon I caught BCOL 4609 turning on the Wye at Port Robinson West, preparing to build Train 562. I waited and waited, but the train didn't leave the yard until mid-afternoon - fortunately my patience paid off, with a sparkling shot at Cambridge siding, and then after a wee chase, I caught the train again at Brookfield Road. On the point today BCOL 4609 - a Draper Taper Dash-8 - one of my all-time favorite locomotives.

Description:  Finally, Train 562 took off from Port Robinson yard. What a sight to behold! A cleaner-than-usual British Columbia Rail Draper Taper Dash-8. I got the full show, with the engineer engaging the oscillating headlights, ringing the bell, and tearing off some fine horn blasts!!
