SOO power on 421
Title:  SOO power on 421
Description:  CP 421 was the train that ran to Buffalo the days 167 didnt run. Todays version has three SOO SD60s not that unusual at the time. Here they split the signals at MP 228 in Campville. Note the traffic light signal on track 2. This was installed in preparation for single tracking the line, which NS would not accomplish for almost another 10 years.

A little higher, a lot snowier
Title:  A little higher, a lot snowier
Description:  Train 413 ascends toward Belden Tunnel, now at Depot Hill Rd in Port Crane, several hundred feet higher than Port Dick. The snow tends to get heavier with elevation, and the train is now into a good squall, which will only get more intense as it reaches the almost 1400 foot elevation at the summit.
