Canadian Railroads > Polar Express, Weekend Two

The West Coast Railway Association in Squamish, BC ran Polar Express specials again this weekend (see last week's train at http://www.trainorders.com/discussion/read.php?15,3597826). Here are some photos of today's afternoon runs, with a special guest appearance from the CN.
1. CP 4069 is in charge once again, idling in the museum grounds between the noon and 2:00pm departures.
2. Here's the 2:00 train in the marshy estuary of the Squamish and Cheakamus Rivers.
3. And with a very full Shannon Falls in the distance.

4. Here's the 4:00pm train down in the bogs,
5. and passing CN's Squamish station.
6. After waiting north of town for the Polar Express to clear, southbound CN train 568 arrives in Squamish from Lillooet. A crew is on hand to take the power northward on train 571.

Great series of images! Number 2 is spectacular, especially with your choice of framing (worthy of an IOTD award, in my opinion).

Wonderful photos! Thank you very much!
