Trackside Log for Saturday, May 19, 2007

Well, it was the long weekend an a beautiful day as well. I felt like seeing if I could find some trains. I hadn't been to Fort Erie for a little while so I thought I'd head over at least until Norfolk Southern train 369 arrived. It took a while, but eventually a train arrived.

• 1100 Fort Erie - CP 427 west - CP 9010-CP 5924-CP 5911-CP 8850
• 1255 Fort Erie - CP 256 east - SOO 6037-CP 6052-SOO 6051
• 1351 Fort Erie - NS 369 west - NS 8693-NS 9041

Amazing. I sit on Canadian National track for hours and only see Canadian Pacific and Norfolk Southern trains. Not much was going on so I drove back home to catalogue some slides. Eventually I heard some horns in the distance and went out to see what Canadian Pacific was running.

• 1841 Fenwick - CP 426 south - CP 5741-CP 5814-CP 5775

On the positive side of things, Canadian Pacific only ran one GE locomotive and it was brand new. I was happy to see the SD40-2 in abundance.
