Railfanning Richwood 10/20/2008

Three trains in the vicinity of Richwood, a small town located just west of Watertown along the CP main.

First is an eastbound manifest powered by AC4400CW CP 8579, SD9043MAC CEFX 114, and AC4400CW CP 8507, crossing County Highway Q. It makes a sound you don't hear much anymore-that of a fast train over jointed rail.

On the other side of the same crossing, we see CP Train 185 heading west behind a single AC4400CW, CP 8524.

Finally, just to the east at Provimi Road, it's another westbound with ES44AC CP 8798 leading AC4400CW 8500.

your dad can hold a cam very still

Yep, he's getting pretty good even with the handheld shots. At this time he only had a little tabletop tripod that he would set on top of rock piles, signal relay cabinets, etc.
