+Wally Plue Pretty empty as they are putting in new rail but here is a photo from yesterday. railfan.thegrebs.com/var/albums/Railpast-Photos/CN/CN%20Yard%20Brantford%20Ontario%20Nov%204%202015.JPG?m=1446740513
the other line visible in the beginning of the video is getting lifted, they've now gotten all the way from where SC johnson is to the area where the old LE&N station used to be...
+TheBrantfordRailfan So sad. I have videos of them running there and have ride along the trail many times. I was hoping maybe another industry would locate there and save that line.
railpast you have videos of it? i didn't know that! can you provide links to them or have you not uploaded them? i feel especially sad because i never got to see a train run down there, i'm pretty sure i almost did when i was little, i was in a car that was approaching a crossing, right as we drove through, the signals activated, i wasn't happy after that...

+TheBrantfordRailfan Bummer, city wanted it gone so they can develop the park more. So sad. At least the two railway bridges are still there... for now.
+CPCNTrainmen This is on the Burford Spur. It is now serviced by Southern Ontario Railway out of Hamilton. Not sure if Ingenia bought it or is just leasing it from CN
The only thing that would make these videos better would be right there and watching. Thank u and keep them coming.
Very nice catch and video!
I try to make them interesting. Thank You.
Nice, I would have liked to see the CN yard.

Nice. But didn't CN close the Brantford Spur?
