Title:  IC 1506
Description:  Just north of the deadline Dash-8s is another old yard track - with two CN switchers - apparently not long for this world.

IC 1506
Title:  IC 1506
Description:  A hole in the fence allowed me a little closer access to these two vintage 1950s diesels, apparently waiting to be 'recycled' at the Welland Metal Recycling facility.

TRRY 108
Title:  TRRY 108
Description:  Way at the back of the deadline is former STELCO STEEL Switcher #615 - originally built in 1951; painstakingly rebuilt in 2021 to work this yard switching metal pipe rack cars. Apparently, it didn't last long. Check out my March 2021 album for pics when #615 first emerged from the shop after rebuilding. Purring like a kitten. http://barney_rebel.rrpicturearchives.net/archiveThumbs.aspx?id=141987

IC 1504
Title:  IC 1504
Description:  The 'new' locomotive deadline is still intact. But all of the 30 or so CN Dash-8s, that sat here for about a year, have all been scrapped. Way back at the end of the line is old STELCO STEEL GE switcher.
