Beautiful... just needs a set of 9400's on a train of Caravan, Reimer, and CN pigs

Thanks everyone, I appreciate the kind comments. 

It has been a while since the rails were polished, but it won't be long now!

You need to do a road trip and bring those 9400s

Don't forget about Imperial Roadways puptainers! Not too many speeds west of Edmonton back in the 80s. 217/218 and 201/202, everything else was 400s,700s and 800s. Later on there was the first doublestack and it was pure Evergreen. 1990 I think.

I haven't checked in here for a few months.  I am blown away!

I can only second that! Stunning.

Though I am heading to The Great White North soon, I'm heading the wrong way

I did forget about those, and a few others no doubt. Can always fill those trains out with autoracks and carload stuff.

202 was the autorack train. It started in New Westminster with autos from the SRY connection at Lulu Island. It was quite a sight watching those autoracks creak and groan as they came off the wooden bridge and made a hard left, with the SRY yard engines running flat out, while a trio of 9400s waited nearby. All within a stones throw of dozens of highrise condos that lined the waterfront. And it happened in daylight.

I recall catching 202 once or twice on the Bala Sub north of Toronto a few times late 90's, but 203 and 204 were more common. I think 202 was more of a night train on the final leg to Toronto.

The nice thing about these rural scenes is that any era will fit.  I could run steam, or even a real passenger train

Pulled out a train to do a little railfanning.
