I live in a small town in northern Ontario that happens to be a hub for CN and also has an Alco Locomotive repair facility. Its great for railfanning here !

I call the first one Locomotive Heaven,



This is a jet used to thaw out frozen switches,



Rebuilt, and ready for delivery,



Ore car,



Hope you like!

Ore car,




That's actually a slag car. It was used by steel mills to haul a by-product from the iron-making process away from the blast furnace.
