Train 422 approaching Lundy's Lane grade crossing on the outskirts of Niagara Falls. Note the broken branch in the big tree - a victim of last week's vicious windstorms that battered the entire region for a good 24 hours or so. |

CP 3033 |
Description: |
After getting some fine shots of CN Train 422, I picked up my favourite CP loco combo on the scanner working a freight transfer at CN Southern Yard, so it was off to White Road, then Miller Road, for a couple of shots in the bright winter sunshine. All in all, a very rewarding morning. |

Description: |
After a long chase (I had to make sure that I got in front of this train after following it from Fort Erie, but then losing sight of it around Stevensville), so I headed way over to the Canal Bank Road overpass on the Port Colborne/Welland Border, west of the canal tunnel. Here CP 255 emerges from the tunnel, beside a long string of empty autoracks. |

Big blue sky shot of CP Train 255 heading west towards CP Welland Yard, about a mile away. Overlooking this scene today I couldn't help but think of the enormous civil engineering/railroad relocation project this whole canal/tunnel thing was back in the early 1970s. |
