Empty Crude Train West
Here's a video that I took a few weeks ago of an empty crude oil westbound train heading out of Saint John, with HLCX 6318 on the point.

Saturday Afternoon Train
Well, another big gap between posts on the blog. Yet again, I apologize for that. I've been without internet for the last week, so I'd like to just use that for the excuse, so I will.
I have a backlog of about 5 or 6 videos that need to get uploaded. I managed to get one uploaded yesterday, my latest shot of CN 2294 leading a three unit lashup westbound through Rothesay in nice fall colors.

They had been stopped about three miles from here for about an hour, as they couldn't get into the yard right away. That semi screwed up the lighting for the shot. I figured I couldn't be that lucky. Here's the end result:
Here's hoping I get my backlog of stuff uploaded over the next few days.

BCOL "Cowl" Catch
Another gap between posts. Sorry about that.
Yesterday, Thursday, I found out that a BCOL "Cowl" unit would be leading the daily eastbound (406), so I decided to head out to catch it.
I set up shop, near the usual location. Here's my shot of the train, BCOL 4612 and CN 2619 lead the eastbound through Rothesay, NB, mile 78 of the CN Sussex Subdivision.
Enjoy the video, more updates to come...hopefully.

Update On Ontario Trip
Sorry for the lack of updates again. I'll just post a couple of videos from my trip to Ontario a few weeks ago.
Here's the first shot, a meet at "CN Garry", east of Lancaster, Ont.
Here's my next shot..I spent 5 hours trackside at Bedell, Ont, just south Kemptville, on the CP Winchester Sub.
The story line is in the video description. Unfortunately, I was only in Ontario for 3 days, so I didn't get out to catch as many trains as I wanted to. Maybe next time.

Another Quick Update
Another one of those "It's been awhile, here's an update" posts.
I haven't been out catching trains as much lately, for whatever reason, mostly because of work. Here's my latest shot, from June 17th, of an NBSR transfer train slowly going to NBSR's Dever Yard in West Saint John.
Hopefully I can get out this week to catch another train or two.
