Photo 1: #40 hauling the mail! In our imagined scenario, the RPO truck has broken down and needs a lift to the garage in McGill.

Photo 2: A color going away shot of 40 and her train.

Photo 3: As #40 heads through a narrow cut, engineer and fireman alike keep an eye out on the line for fallen rocks and obstructions.

Until next time...

Mike,

Great to see that the Adverse Branch is no longer excepted track. With the ore cars back in service and the Adverse Branch open again, it's time for me to go back again!

Beautiful, Mike, and a great series on the NN. I hate doing this, but since my late father worked for the REAX for 37 years, I must point out that the truck was not mail, but REA.
