Canadian Railroads > MLW Monday - Trillium Railway

Friday Sept 16 was spent along Ontario's Trillium Railway.  Trillium is an MLW property operated with RS-18 and S-13 units.  One of each is required to handle the duties along the meandering industrial trackage beside the Welland Canal.  Another pair plus an HR-412 are kept in storage.  Technically Trillium does have a GM unit but it's only a hulk.

On the Friday in question an S-13 was at the south end of the line and an RS-18 at the north.  The S-13 is a former CN unit.

Shown here is the RS-18 switching St Catharines.  Obviously, the unit is ex-CP.

Great images of an interesting short line using MLW power. Thanks for posting these.

Certainly quite a difference in paint schemes.

Not sure if I'd call it a "scheme" or not...more like paint "leftovers"...

Excellent. What's next to the exhaust stack in photo 1? It looks like a bird's nest.

It's a tree branch.  Think locomotive as brush cutter.
