Description: |
After heading east out of Port Robinson, Train 422 loops around the Clifton Wye in Niagara Falls, then heads west, where I caught it at the Garner Road grade crossing, just ahead of the Welland Canal bridge. |

Don't see ex-BNSF locos around here very often, so this was kind of cool on Train 421 coming into CN Port Robinson yard. And in 'Warbonnet' livery, no less! |

CN 6218 |
Description: |
Stage 1 repair/refurbishing appear to be complete for CN 6218, on permanent display in Fort Erie. I believe the next major project is to build some sort of protective cover over the entire train. |

IC 2457 |
Description: |
Crisp blue IC Dash-8 is middle unit in today's power trio on Train 562. I missed a chance for a shot of the actual innards of this locomotive - the hood doors were left unlatched and swung open as the train passed, but I wasn't expecting the opportunity, and didn't have my camera ready. |

CN 1501 |
Description: |
I thought I was in a Twilight Zone episode...but it's November 22, 2018 - What a totally pleasant surprise coming into Port Robinson this morning on the Stamford Subdivision. CN 1501, an RDC (Rail Diesel Car) converted to a Self-Propelled Track Geometry Car, was originally a CN RDC-1, labelled D-108, built in 1958 for passenger service. As an RDC-1 it had coach seats only. All RDCs, except for the RDC-5/9, have two diesel engines driving the wheels, so they are self-propelled and have operator controls at each end. |

CN 1501 |
Description: |
CN 1501 - built in 1958. Today, identified as Train 999 by the dispatcher, I caught the train first here, coming into the yard at Port Robinson, then drove around to the south end for a shot into the yard as it lined up near the yard office. I missed it coming out of the yard, but after a very lively chase, caught up to it again approaching the Brookfield Wye, where it was headed to do some track testing. |
