CN 5474  Contributor's Pick!       
I was just in time to catch this short but interesting train that rumbled out of CN Southern Yard and headed for the CP Hamilton Sub at the Brookfield Wye with a freight transfer to CP Lambert Yard. Fortunately, I was getting all this talk between the RTC and the train on my scanner, so was able to catch this freighter twice again - on CP trackage running parallel to Townline Tunnel Road, and on the Forkes Road Wye where the track winds up to the junction at Yagar, just south of CN Southern Yard. In this last shot, the locos have been switched around so 5474 leads as the train heads to Southern Yard.

Dan L General Seems to me that CN has withdrawn all their SD60s from storage. Last Wednesday, I have seen two in a row on the CN York subdivision in Vaughan Ontario which is quite an unusual coincidence. I guess that we should see a lot more of them in the near future due to the fact that CN has sold or scrapped their SD60Fs and is planning to do the same with their GMD1s along with some select GP38-2s and GP9s. Great composition and Thanks for sharing! 6/18/2017 9:45:56 AM
