Description: |
Ice Storm 1 - I finally ventured out to see what was left of the nasty 2-day ice storm that coated everything down here with a slick, thick, layer of ice, and was pleasantly surprised that much of the ice was still clinging, making for some interesting pics of today's trains. First Train 421, here at Clifton on the CN Grimbsby Subdivision, then the AMTRAK Maple Leaf at Portage Road overpass, then Train 562 being built at Port Robinson yard, a brisk chase to catch Train 331 at Garner Road, and then back to the south end of Port Robinson yard for one more look at Train 562 as the power trio backed onto its completed train. |

A couple of pics of the AMTRAK Maple Leaf. Although there are a number of different tracks and spurs, veering off in all directions, there are few trains here anymore, with most of the industrial spurs essentially unused. Trillium Railway switches a few nearby local industries, and uses this siding on weekdays. |

I couldn't have asked for better sunshine this morning. as I watched Train 421, first here at the south yard entrance, as it approaches Canby Street, then as it went back into the yard. Contrast this scene to last week after the two-day ice storm. Today, barely a speck of snow or ice visible. |
