My first pic in 5 months after my serious car accident. Trillium Railways yard in Welland. Looks like all those expired Canada Wheat Board grain hoppers have all been shredded, with just a few bones left behind. |

TRRY 108 |
Description: |
Way at the back of the deadline is former STELCO STEEL Switcher #615 - originally built in 1951; painstakingly rebuilt in 2021 to work this yard switching metal pipe rack cars. Apparently, it didn't last long. Check out my March 2021 album for pics when #615 first emerged from the shop after rebuilding. Purring like a kitten. http://barney_rebel.rrpicturearchives.net/archiveThumbs.aspx?id=141987 |

Unknown Caboose - Welland, Ontario |

I wasn't able to quickly find out the lineage of this old caboose, but there it is, sitting in the Trillium Railways yard in Welland. It is painted in what looks like the new owner - GIO Industries - solid grey livery - but without any reporting marks. |

CP road diesel idles at Welland Yard. CP cut down all these tall weeds and shrubbery about 2 years ago, but they're quickly taking over the scenery again. Soon, it will be next to impossible to get picks into the yard from Lambert Street. |

Things are changing now that GIO Industries has taken over Trillium Railways operations in and around St. Catharines and Welland. The massive blue warehouse has been completely dismantled, with the yard now serving as a lumber storage facility. Not sure what's going to happen to Trillium's two aging ALCOs. |

CN 3902 |
Description: |
After photographing the tank ship ALGOMA HANSA at Port Robinson, I swung by Fort Erie on the way home, not really expecting anything, but was just in time for a meet between a CN and a CP freight train at Duff Yard - both headed west. I was able to chase both trains for pics at two different spots. First real ship and train chasing expedition since the car crash way back in January. It felt REALLY good to be back out on the (rail) road again. Broken wrist healing nicely. Just gotta be careful. |
