CP 235 approaching Perth Ontario

CP 9565 & CEFX 3117 (Exx-Southern Pacific SD45 8888!) lead train 235 past the cemetary at Drummond Consession Road 1, just east of Perth Ontario. Slowing down to protect a crossing inside the town limits.

Currently, there is work going on along the Belleville Subdivision in that all the old searchlight block signals are being replaced with new LED block signals. Get your photos now before these pieces of 20th Century technology disappear.

(Hello CP? Please don't scrap one of these Union Switch & Signal signals. I would like to acquire one of these searchlights - mast and all - as the mechanisms which change the colored filters are fascinating to me. http://www.trainweb.org/signals/usssls1.htm)
