Had to visit CAMI today. After I was done I caught a couple on my way home.

CN 271 stopped to lift loaded auto-racks out of the siding at Beachville.

This shot is of him as he's on his lift. Shot is taken across an open pit limestone quarry.

As he's departing approaching Ingersoll.

Shot of trailing units. Luckily he was going slow as he was just starting to depart after making the lift which gave me a chance to shoot some digital while still taking 35mm slide shots.

As I was approaching the Diamond at Carew I heard the CP local ask the CN DS dispatcher for a signal across the diamond. I just managed to get a slide film shot but no digital. But it was the same power as I shot Tuesday on this train.

11:36
CP Local Westbound on th St. Thomas Sub.
CP 1614 - CP 1508
12 cars

That's all for now.
