When I got up this morning I turned on the scanner to listen for any activity on the Canadian Pacific Hamilton Subdivision. It wasn't long before I heard train 255 alert the dispatcher to their departure from Buffalo, New York. A while later, just as the train was approaching the junction between the Canadian National Stamford Subdivision and the Hamilton Subdivision I heard a southbound report the Smithville mile board. I decided to take Missy over to Boyle for a photograph across the fields of corn stover.
- 1015 Boyle - CP 246 south - CP 9640-CP 9657
Now that I knew the two trains would be meeting at the north siding switch in Welland, I headed there for a look at train 255. First I took a photograph of the two meeting.
- 1032 Welland - CP 246 south - CP 9640-CP 9657
- 1038 Welland - CP 255 north - CP 8646-CP 8534-CITX 3170-SOO 6026
After a brief chat with a fellow railfan at Hewitt Road Missy and I returned home.
