Hello again---Kinnear yard always has it's share of older Geeps but this is probably the only time we'll see these two units on this property---these two Railink locomotives appear to be waiting transfer to their new owners---CCGX.These locomotives were often spotted in the Canadian National Stuart St. yard.

Greetings from Hamilton.A treat today at Kinnear yard as a couple of very clean ex-Soo SD60's were part of a three unit consist sitting in the west end of the yard.Unfortunately it's difficult to get some unobstructed photos so this is the best I could do.

I did find a gap in the fence and was able to get a couple of better shots.

Trespassing..?? Tsk...Tsk...
Somebody is going to get the photo police on your case.... Goldth

P.D. They are cool..!!
Totally legal today Gus Big Grin As I mentioned yesterday,pictures from the west end of Kinnear yard are sometimes hard to photograph (legally) and I certainly do not encourage or practise trespassing so I was happy to catch this eastbound train today sitting in the yard with a clear view from Lawrence Rd..A bonus was the four SD40-2's at the head end including three ICE/DME units.

Coffee break must be over---the "heat" is on.Somebody must have squealed on the railfanners peaking through the fence.

Maybe the heavy rains will help clean up the heavily weathered 8201

Somebody did a "great" job on the weathering of #8201... Goldth
I got lucky at Bayview today as I spotted my first CN SD60 #5437

Hello again---over the last few days I've had intentions to start doing some outside spring clean up around the house but Mother Nature hasn't been co-operating with all the rain and cooler temperatures.Maybe it's not such a bad thing as it hasn't prevented me from doing a bit more railfanning so I headed out to Kinnear yard and Hamilton West to test my luck---here's what I spotted (all legally Wink
