The sun played tricks with me all day long. Fortunately, I was patient, and got lucky when the sun literally popped out just as CP Train 255 rounded the big bend coming off the Brookfield connector track. |

Description: |
Although there's really not a lot of train action down here in Niagara Region, I am still very thankful of gems - diamonds in the rough, if you will - like these three totally classic locomotives - all in fine working condition, and still gainfully employed in 2021. |

CP 8757 |
Description: |
The story behind CP 8757 began with 13-year-old Jacob Hoffer, an Indigenous youth who in the summer of 2021 wrote to CP asking the railroad to consider painting one of CP’s locomotives orange. CP responded positively, and sought guidance from the Orange Shirt Society, a non-profit organization that supports Residential School Reconciliation and creates awareness of the individual, family and community inter-generational impacts of Residential Schools, to develop the special livery. |
