The track patrol had gone by on the North track and had the track for most of the way to Woodstock and then 587 headed out onto the South track so I figured it would be awhile before anything else showed up so off I went to Kitchener to go to the Kitchener Model Railway Show.

On my way I stopped at Galt to shoot the CP power based there for the job that runs up to the Toyota Assembly plant.

Then before going to the show I shot the GEXR power sitting at the Kitchener station.

Closest to the main line was
LLPX 2210 - CEFX 6537 - GEXR 3835
The 2210 is ex GTW 5806

In behind was

After the show (picked up an Atlas Chessie U30C brand new for $79 plus tax plus some trees etc for the layout)
I took another shot of the GEXR set from the other end as the sun was now on the nose of the GEXR unit.
