The recent labour dispute may have created some unusual train schedules as CP143 normally passes through Hamilton during the night.I received a "heads up" that this train was heading to Kinnear Yard in the afternoon and I was lucky to catch it as it headed this lenghty southbound "stack train" through my hometown.The BNSF SD70 was also a special treat.
