  • CN 4770 running on what is left of the Burford Sub. CN has given up on it and service is now provided to Ingenia by Southern Ontario Railway out of Hamilton Ontario.Not sure how long that will continue so the line is still in danger of being removed if service drops to a level that would not support service.

    1:00, the train looks as though it is teetering and tottering but looks really neat at 2:37. It must be fun living in those houses. But then look at 4:00👍.

      It was fun chasing it but trains no longer run there. Ingenia bought the line and now use a trackmobile. :-(

    Excellent video Walter! It was worth the wait! $4.00 to get in! You can't go wrong there! I wonder what scale the B&O F7A and the steam locomotive were?! They are big! Very appropriate to have a freight train sound in a train show! As long as it's not going through the building!

    Wow very close beside to the train in that 3 video segment.
    So what is the story on these rails. Are they still in used now?
    Just no longer being serviced by CN no longer I gather from other comments on Brantford rails videos.

      TheBrantfordRailfan Yes BrantfordRailfan you read my mind. I was hoping to get some specific times, but with the schedule having such uncertainty. I'll probably have to pass on this line due to limited spare time and financial cost of driving out to Brantford my not be worth the effort. However I still enjoy watching these trains make their way through Brantford!! Great videos indeed.

    CN track Foreman who looks after it. :-)
    S.C.Johstons hasn't had a single car in about 4 months, and there's serious talk that Ingenia is going to off load their covered hoppers to trucks inside Brantford yard. I will let you and everyone else know as soon as I hear more. The city of Brantford will sure be happy, they have wanted that track tore up for years.

    Fun video! Thank you for sharing it. 2:08 Why are the mee-mool lights *(o)T(o)* on the wrong side of the track?

    • @railpast
      @railpast  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Not sure what you mean.

    • @robertgift
      @robertgift 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Normally, mee-mool lights *(o)T(o)* are on the right side _before_ the crossing.From the approaching driver's perspective, *(o)T(o)* are after crossing the track.

    • @jameseaton1286
      @jameseaton1286 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      There's no requirement to have them on the near side of the tracks, as you're suggesting, as long as they're visible from both sides of the tracks - and one post is cheaper than two. Double-sided crossing light poles, such as these, are very common in Canada. You seem again at 4:30

    • @robertgift
      @robertgift ปีที่แล้ว

      @@jameseaton1286 Thank you. Most mee-mool lights *(o)T(o)* are double-sided. Exceptions are one way streets where no lamps face the wrong direction. As an Operation Lifesaver presenter, manyears ago I suggested that *RAILROAD CROSSING* crossbuck signs have *RAILROAD CROSSING* printed on both sides. Normally printed on.e side. Now I am seeing them on BOTH sides!

      I thought they told you to get off the tracks or the train was too close to your camera.

      Camera was a long way from the train. I had it zoomed in as they were approaching and was shooting photos so never zoomed it out making it look like the camera was close but really was about 10 feet from the train.

    Of course they choose trucks, probably cause of complaining motorists
