CP on the Lyn Valley & North Western

 Repairs are being made to the CP main line and 9122 has asked for passage rights across CN's main line through the Lyn Valley.


CP 9122 preparing to leave the yard.

Under way.

Passing the tower and the locomotive repair facilities.

 
Past the main office buiding and 9122 is almost ready to cross onto the main line.


Through the crossover and onto the main line finally.

Here 9122 is passing the Ethanol plant.


The site of this abandoned cabin would make a great place for a railfans cottage!


Lots of widlife to be seen along this stretch through the Lyn Valley.


Not a lot of activity at Inukshuk Mining today.



Crossing the trestle in front of Inukshuk Mining.


Through the tunnel and onto another towering trestle.



Prepaing to enter the snowshed at Cornelius Slide.


The bridges never seem to end in this part of the country.



Rumbling past Great Western Caboose Camping Adventures. This is a great spot for railfans who want to get away in a caboose for a week to do some camping, fishing and railfanning.
