Thank you John A and Paul for the kudos!
I have really enjoyed this project. I have been able to recreate one of the memories of my childhood of spending summer vacations at my Grandparents home in Sudbury Ontario.
Their house was 2 blocks away from the CPR station and main yard. There would be all kinds of rail traffic and switching happening 24/7 it seemed.
There was at least 2 of these Alco S2 switchers moving cars around the yard all the time even at night and the constant Alco chugging duet was a great way to sleep at nite
lol
Sudbury for those unaware, was the location where the “Canadian “ would split into 2 separate eastbound sections(Toronto or Montreal) or combine into one when heading Westbound. Also ore traffic was ongoing with the numerous mines and smelters around the region
I thought I would include an old postcard pic from the 60s showing two eastbound sections of the Canadian before departure at the station
