CN 3902 |
| Description: |
After photographing the tank ship ALGOMA HANSA at Port Robinson, I swung by Fort Erie on the way home, not really expecting anything, but was just in time for a meet between a CN and a CP freight train at Duff Yard - both headed west. I was able to chase both trains for pics at two different spots. First real ship and train chasing expedition since the car crash way back in January. It felt REALLY good to be back out on the (rail) road again. Broken wrist healing nicely. Just gotta be careful. |

A short chase of a slow-moving CN Train 422 got me here first at Pettit Road grade crossing, then again just a little further west at Sunset Drive. |

CN 8892 |
| Description: |
With my good camera in Toronto getting a clean and a checkup, I had to dust off the old Rebel xti - just for the day. It still works, but it's like everything is in slow motion. Tucked away at Duff Yard (I saw it from a distance as I crossed Central Avenue Bridge) was CN 8892. |

CP 8576 |
| Description: |
Spent one minute too long buying peanuts at Picard's in Fort Erie, and just missed CP Train 255 coming across the International Bridge into Canada. But I managed to get ahead of the train here at Pettit Road grade crossing, then way further west near Welland at the Miller Road overpass. Special guest locomotive, far from its home range, is well-seasoned Union Pacific 5554 (GE AC4400CW-CTE). |
