Trackside Log for Wednesday, January 11, 2006

I woke up, got out of bed, dragged a comb across my head. Then it was back to the Via station to catch another train 90.

• 0704 St. Catharines - CN 331 west - CN 5329-CN 5387
• 0708 dep St. Catharines - Via 90 west - VIA 911
• 0725 arr/0727 dep Grimsby - Via 90 west - VIA 911

While passing through Hamilton yard I noticed RaiLink 1756 and 1756 in the shop.

• 0800 arr/0804 dep Aldershot - Via 90 east - VIA 911
• 0805 Aldershot - CN switcher - CN 7059
• 0821 arr/0823 dep Oakville - Via 90 east - VIA 911
• 0842 Canpa - Via 97 west - AMTK 713
• 0856 arr Toronto - Via 90 east - VIA 911

I noticed that our train had become #42 east.

I managed to put the finishing touches on a Perl program for the client today. I was quite tired though and ready to go home.

• 1744 dep Toronto - Via 95 west - VIA 6427
• 1807 arr/1809 dep Oakville - Via 95 west - VIA 6427

RaiLink 1756 was no longer in the shop in Hamilton. It was parked out front.

• 1853 arr/1854 dep Grimsby - Via 95 east - VIA 6427
• 1910 arr/1914 dep St. Catharines - Via 95 east - VIA 6427

And before I knew it I was home on a wet, miserable evening only to do it all over tomorrow.
