Back on the train after finishing its lift.
Departing Brantford through the short 15mph crossovers. This is not a usual move for CN mainline freights because of the slow speed. Normally they would run out to the next crossovers at Masseys at the east end of town and cross over there.
Snow's getting a little heavier.
As he was pulling out I shot this fallen flag.
