CN 2620 |
| Description: |
The birthday gods shone brightly on me today. After years of photographing trains in this area at the southeast edge of Toronto, I finally get the morning shot I've been looking for (albeit with just my 'point and shoot' camera) as the cold winter sun slices into the CN rail corridor at Plug Hat Road. But where's the snow? |

CN 8855 |
| Description: |
I was a little surprised to see CN 8855 working alone, hauling an intermodal freighter southbound across the former Main Street in Mount Albert. But this locomotive had a helper at the rear. CN seems to be doing a lot more of this - placing locomotives at the front and rear of the train. |

CN 2229 |
| Description: |
Finally a little snow to make things interesting. I caught CN 2229 and workmate CN 2423 after hiking up the hill at McGowan Road with the snow a falling and the wind a blowing. While heading for home, I saw the train slowing down at the Davis Road overpass, and thought I just might catch up to her again at Warden Avenue, so went dashing through the snow to arrive just in time to jump out of the car and snap a few more pics with the snow really coming down. |

CN 8814 |
| Description: |
A fine Saturday morning chasing CN trains plying the Bala Sub. Here CN 8814 roars towards the McGowan Road crossing. At this point, I still didn't know that the third locomotive was a GMD1. And when I saw it, I couldn't believe it. |

CN 1407 - GMD1 |
| Description: |
Catch of the Day is CN 1407 - a GMD1 so rare in these parts I couldn't believe my eyes. 1,001 were built between 1958 and 1960 - but only for the Canadian CN market. Although CN 1407 was just a hitchhiker on this train, it looked in good enough shape to spark the engine up. Looks really nice next to BCOL 4610. |

CN 2301 |
| Description: |
A fine Saturday morning chasing CN trains plying the Bala Sub. Here CN 2301 crosses the creek near Zephyr Ontario. I'm standing in what is usually a small lake - totally frozen over in this arctic weather. |
