Canadian Railroads > Lady Liberty in Ontario

I really wanted to drone this train, but it was waaaay too windy on an advance test flight. So it was back to the Grand River bridge shot at Galt, Ontario, with a little PS help. Now some folks get all bent out of shape because CP adds a pilot engine to almost every foreign led eastbound at Windsor and I'm sure that frustration was exponentially higher today for those guys given the CNJ Heritage unit that led from Chicago to Windsor. I like it because it puts context to a train that could otherwise be anywhere when you can't work in a definitive landmark. Light ain't great, but it is what it is.

Nicely done, and that Geep sure looks small, doesn't it?

It's amazing how many heritage units have made it in to Canada. It's got to be at least half of them. Nicely done.
