ONR (Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources) arrives on scene, lands their helicopter on the tracks to drop off some firefighters and water equipment. At this point the MNR evacuates the CN crew and calls in the water bombers.

The helicopter and the reconnaissance air plane circle overhead and two water bombers begin making runs. Before long it's well under control and we head for home.

Ministry of Natural Resources equipment on scene:
Eurocopter AS350 Helicopter (15)
Beechcraft King Air 300 (C-GIZV)
Bombardier CL-415 (C-GOGZ 278)
Havilland DHC-6 Twin Otter (C-GOGC 848)
