Davi...Thanks for the comments, David and Anonymous. David, the trains out of Walkley Yard (to my knowledge) are 589 and 584. 589 runs three days a week, twice on the Smiths Falls Sub and once a week, Wednesday, on the Beachburg Sub and Renfrew Spur. The 584 train runs east to Hawkesbury and elsewhere. Of course, my info might be a bit out of date. They might have renumbered the eastbound local 589. Since CN operates only runs one train a day out of Walkley (only one locomotive is ever assigned to Ottawa), having one train number does simplify things.<br /><br />And, to answer the first suggestion, I am working on some posts about former right-of-ways in the Ottawa area.

Is this the same train # that runs...CN Train 589... Is this the same train # that runs east out of Walkley Yard weekday mornings ?<br />I recently saw a video of a CN train going to Hawkesbury and it was called CN Train 589. <br />Train 589 seems to go everywhere out of Ottawa.

...Do you read all the comments people have for you?<br /><br />I have a few suggestions for pages - pictures of what former rights of way look like now and pictures of static cars and locomotives in the area that people can visit.<br /><br />For example - the flanger at Juniper Fairways on the way to Smiths Falls and the Cornwall Street railway loco in Cornwall. There is a similar one in Ganonoque too.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
