Overnight Potash Train

Last Thursday night/Friday morning, myself and Dave (http://www.youtube.com/nbsrfan) decided to venture out to catch the overnight potash train, CN 594.

We went out around 22:30AST. We were expecting them to arrive before midnight. We were talking for a while, and the next thing you know, it was 02:00. A few minutes, just as we were about to part ways after what we though was an unsuccessful night, we heard CN 594 call the yard to get in and head over to Courtnay Bay.

With plenty of time to spare, we set up shop and caught them crossing over to Courtnay Bay.



After that, we called it a night and went our seperate ways.

A Quick Update

It's been a while since I've last done an update here. I'd like to blame it on the fact that I've been busy, but I'm going to lean towards the fact that I'm kind of a slacker.

I'm not going to go into great details. Here are my latest two videos uploaded. The first one is of CN 406 westbound through the usual location.



A day earlier, we were getting pummeled by a snow storm. This shot is of CN 406 westbound, from pretty much the exact location of the first shot.



Now that it's a new year, hopefully I can try and keep this blog updated a little more. Well, I can at least try.
