Trackside Log for Wednesday, March 8, 2006

Today I was going to a slide show at Marcus' place. Leading up to it I decided to visit Guelph Junction. It had been a very long time since I'd spent any time there and I was missing it.

• 0758 Campbellville - CP 138 east - CP 9756
• 0811 Guelph Junction - CP 142 east - CP 8209-CP 8214
• 0813 Guelph Junction - CP 147 west - CP 9822-CP 5726

Ontario Southland was assembling their train so I ventured out ahead to search for a nice location to photograph it.

• 1026 Corwhin - OSR northbound - OSRX 182-OSRX 504
• 1106 Guelph Junction - CP 159 west - SOO 6026-SOO 6014
• 1115 Campbellville - CP Guelph Junction turn west - CP 8215-CP 8207

I was getting hungry so I dropped into the Trail Eatery for some food. While the turn switched the junction I ate.

• 1227 Guelph Junction - CP 243 west - CP 8568-CP 9817
• 1357 Guelph Junction - CP 141 west - CP 8209-CP 8214
• 1441 Guelph Junction - CP 424 east - CP 5806-CEFX 1054-CP 9548-CP 9115-CP 9141
• 1502 Guelph Junction - CP 525 north (Hamilton turn) - CP 8252-CP 8243

It turned out to be a rather decent day at Guelph Junction. I thought it might be interesting to stop by mile 30 of the CN Halton subdivision to see if anything was going on.

• 1545 Scotch Block - CN 422 east - CN 2685-CN 2668
• 1601 Scotch Block - CN 145 west - CN 6021
• 1626 Scotch Block - CN 435 west - CN 5605-CN 9424

It was getting pretty dark and approaching time to head to Marcus'. And I am outta here.
