From last Tuesday's trip. Gotta say VIA Rail burns the wheels off those trains. Terrific high speed run; I must do that again.
Interesting how two trains are run as one. Train 60 runs with two cars, then train 50 with its own locomotive coupled behind. Train 60 splits up the line, around Brockville, I believe, and heads to Montreal. Train 50 follows after making more stop.
O-train is a neat little diesel operation, five stops long with one passing siding. Currently being upgraded to two track operation.
