Speaking of high sun...
Author: Mberry

Geoff's post about CN 120 mentioned high sun and unfortunately high sun period is when CN 327 tends to leave Taschereau Yard in Montreal. I went out to shoot it yesterday anyways as my friend was conductor and the lashup was a CSXT SD40-3 and AC6000CW.

1-First I shot it at Dorval, where it was backlit as well as not so great sun.

2-Then I shot it crossing the Ottawa River as it left the island of Montreal. At least the sun was at my back for shot.

3-Finally I shot it at Coteau, on the Valleyfield Sub wye. By now it was 1213 and the sun was really harsh and I headed home.

Nice pairing, SD40-2 and CW46AH (used to be CW60AC).

Looks like even CSX is classifying them as SD40-3's.
