Four 40s pulling hard |
Description: |
Train 253s SDs are pulling hard as they struggle toward Belden Tunnel. This was mostly a merchandise train to St Luc, and it was typically maxing out its tonnage ratings. Fortunately, another ten minutes, and it will be downhill into Afton. |

Tunnel of trees |
Description: |
The snows of winter highlight how heavily forested the northeast can be, as train 164 rolls toward Belden tunnel through a narrow cut between stands of timber. In the summer, this shot is all but impossible. |
