To answer the question regarding the line out to Arnprior, nothing is planned other than CN's weekly service out to Nylene but there are some ideas for those tracks (advocates of commuter rail think there's potential there).

That's the normal place that switch brooms are left as it allows easy access to said broom, especially in the winter. Pay attention to locomotives, especially switchers, in the winter and I guarantee you see quite a few brooms stuffed in the ladder rungs.GP9Rm4108https://www.blogger.com/profile/15089025192333706088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3680264279342137192.post-54544972371529886232015-10-31T00:11:55.231-04:002015-10-31T00:11:55.231-04:00Don't discount sleep training by car!

I myself am interested in trains and wish I could see more of them in Ottawa. What are the future plans for the train route for Walkley and Arnprior?

I have not been out to shoot trains in weeks, so I'm not sure what is going on at the moment.

Do you know if they've made any progress replacing the ties on this line?<br /><br />DaveMDaveMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14058463713656836821noreply@blogger.com
