Railfanning Kipling GO station on The Canadian Pacific Galt Subdivision part 2. 1/25/2011

Описание: Me and a few friends went to the Kipling GO station platform because CP 440 was stopped on the south track right next to it so we could get some photos/video of the train. Little did we know, CP 240 pulled up right beside it in the same spot on the north track! Both trains had the "stop" signal just east of the station. CP 440 waits at the red light for The Obico Yard Job to switch from the south track to the south service track to pick up a cut of Intermodal cars, GO 155, GO 157, and GO 159 and CP 240 waits for GO 155, GO 157, and GO 159, and CP 245 with a great lash-up. All the trains except The Obico Yard Job CP 440 and CP 240 we're waiting for we're on Track 1 (the north siding track).

2. CP 440 led by CP 9004 and CP 5932 leading an eastbound mixed freight/Autorack train is ready and the first to depart Kipling GO station after getting the clear signal to proceed east to Toronto. Thanks goes to the engineer for the horn salutes.
