Description: |
Light engine switching at CN Port Robinson on three different roll-bys - first at 11:28 AM, then 30 minutes later at at 11:58, then at 1:20 PM - in between catching two boats on the Canal. On my first pass by the CN yard, I caught this light engine move onto the tiny spur where the yardmaster is waiting. This appears to be the lead engine on Train 421 being tucked away. |

Description: |
Close up look at CP 8066 - with my favourite - the Beaver Emblem. 'By the end of 1886, Canadian Pacific needed a visual link to tie it in with Canada. So CPR's passenger department placed a beaver on the point of the shield and gave it a branch with maple leaves to gnaw. Both the beaver and the maple leaf would later be officially adopted as Canada's national symbols'. How cool is that?! |
