I think there was a CN/CP yahoo group outing at Bayview this past weekend. 24 hr event, that's probably why there was lots of people camped out...

David, according the Bruce Rails Yahoo group, which covers most of the SW Ontario shortlines, OBRY has figured everything out with Cando and are back to normal. Also, found this on another website, seems there was a small motorcar excursion this past weekend on the OSR. Jeepkings Message Forum

You won't see much of them in Ingersoll itself, they only run there several days a week to pick up cars at the CPR interchange. If you take Highway 19 south to Salford, you can see their enginehouse just west of Salford. I can hear them from my office at work. :) BTW, it's not "still existed"...

I believe they are MP40... not MP36... at least that's the correction given on the CPR list.

Him Torton's, with rearrangeable letters? Do you think we could get HO scale roll up the rim to win cups for road litter? :)

CMLW already released a CN GP9Rm a couple years ago, so he's established and reputable.

Trains are still rolling. It's only the conductors on strike, and this time they went with just a few localized pickets, which were then locked out. Managers were busy substituting. All moot points now, since the government ordered them back to work. You can keep up with up the moment updates on...

What a fantastic layout! (although there are a few more tunnels than I remember seeing in SW Ontario :) )

And they're back on strike, with 79% rejection of the tentative agreement.

Don't forget the 20mph express called The Hudson Bay! :)

Lots of the stainless cars run Windsor(or Sarnia) to Toronto. None of the regular corridor trains are named, as far as I know. Weirdest I saw was on Sunday a couple weeks ago, 2 Via trains in 1, back to back, 1 with LRC cars and 1 with stainless, with an F40 at either end. I assume the reverse...

Awesome stuff! So, you'll have it mostly done it time for next year's doubleheader tour, right? :)

Thanks for sharing, squidbait. Those are 2 of the ones I liked best that I visited last year. Actually, I go to Aberfoyle every time I do the doubleheaders tour. David, I will look into this Brantford tour, sounds like something good to do while real estate agent does open house of our home.

I wasn't able to go this year since my brother in law got married. Anyone here go and take lots of pictures? In past years there has been a bunch from here that have gone....

The Volvo/Champion road grader plant is nearby, isn't it? They ship by rail out of Goderich sometimes...

Perhaps he's wondering how he'll fit through the door....

What station is that, Chris?

I rode the GO a couple weeks ago from Oakville to Union for the TO car show. It was a neat trip to see the backsides of the industries and everything. The Mimico servicing area is pretty neat too. I should get the pics off my camera.... :)

Awesome pics Squid.

This would be coming FROM Churchill, as the Gillam station is on the North side of the tracks. HBR was still running a bunch of M420s when I was there in July.
