CP 242 with CIT 6016 and Plenty of Power in Lakeshore, ON.

Описание: Filmed August 8th, 2016. I had a heads up while I was at work about a 242 coming into Canada with a CIT SD60 in the consist. In my scramble to get my camera gear when I got home from work I forgot my scanner and had to guess its location. I saw the train reversing back to its consist at Dougall after doing work in Windsor Yard and I raced east of the city to shoot it. At first I was going to go to Wallace Line but construction equipment blocked any hopes of getting a shot of an eastbound. Not knowing the train's location I took a big chance and went one crossing west to Patillo Road. I made it with about 5 minutes to spare. Unfortunately, the late afternoon light was horrible for eastbound trains but I made due with it. The CIT SD60 was on its way to the OSR for some electrical work to be done at their Salford shops. If you go to OSR's Salford shops now you will be able to see this unit along with a UP unit having the same work done. Enjoy! Happy New Year everyone!
