CP 2282

Description:  Two sparking ECO units sandwich the usual GP38-2 on today's Havelock run. Despite the overcast skies, there's a nice early winter feel to the scene that makes these bright red diesels stand out.

CP 2282
Title:  CP 2282
Description:  I thought it was dog stew when out of the corner of my eye I saw this jet black dog flying through the tall grass heading directly at the train - only to put the brakes on and come to a skidding stop just inches from the tracks. This pooch has probably done the same daily train-chase-bark routine a thousand times, and was likely in no danger, but it sure scared the heck out of me.
