@ELSD45801 Thanks! Me either unfortunately

[@YankeePat94]

Great video. The name of that junction between the Morristown Line and Morristown & Erie is Baker. Also, just west of the junction is a phase gap, where electric trains don't draw power.

4204 used to be a cp rail engine

[@Townshipfarmer]

I was just about to ask that question. Thanks

[@Bubs031]

4204 was working for the Ottawa central also. with a few RS-18's before the company was bought by CN

[@TheWinnipegRailfan]

33cbg yeah , it was used on the NBEC Railway until CN bought the company and sold a lot of ther locos .

[@martindoyle831]

4204 went to woodcreat shops after that. I got pictures of 1842 coming through belleville on a frieght in tow but in consist. In like 2011-12 unsure. Still on an older cell phone. I tracked those locos. Rode 1865 in ottawa during an open house. Grew up 1 mile from the yard and got pics of her working the old cp side of walkey yards in the 1980s by the now engine house for the o-train. Not sure what all cn did with the locos but if u had been in the right place like morristown u would have been able to buy one at action for about 12k. I think that was the average price of about 12 of these units. Sold at woodcrest . Not sure what cn charged to clear and move them tho. Their stipulations are rough as hell. And prices are huge. 4 dollars a km 1000 per move min. And set out fee.s daily storage costs while in transit. Plus all the mechanical that goes with. And u have to pay cn to inspect it. So total unit cost was prob 50 plus k. But sooo glad it wasnt scrapped.. some where . On site. Cry.. lol.. canadian railways are weird .. very nastalgic. But then not at all.

[@martindoyle831]

Also since then cn has ripped up the ottawa central basically. They pulled the last of the old northern cut off line called the beachburg sub. (Used to connect montreal to the west along the ottawa river valley and cut time of transit) cn pulled it all. Its gone now. They had previously pulled it to pembrooke then sold it to the ottawa central. Once they got back the line in the east. They never wabted the ottawa line. Just came in the deal. It was 115 pound semi welded rail. (Had sections) it was for sale for 20 million dollars. And no one got it. Not sure if cn just fucked around the process so they could pull it anyways. But their was huge demand for the line but no one seemed to come up with the dollars. As well hunter harris was pulling the parrallel cr rail northern line. Which is now gone between matawa (a junction) and smiths falls ontario. Leaving absolutely no route to move along the ottawa river valley. Idiots. But what do u do when everyone is comprimised by the satanic worshipping child pedo cult thats in every town city and village. Ur mayor. Judge. Town council. All on the payroll for an intrest NOT. OF prosperity. .. dont believe me. Go read it for urself.. its all out there for everyone to see. Yet no one ever seems to care. Hope that changes when u all find out that the children missing around ur cities is because of the people running them. Then maybe ull get it. But probably not. Because ur watching the news run by the people who do this type of thing. And if they dont. They know about it.. a.k.a. HOLLYWOOD. Hahaha truth is there. Can u all see it. Stop letting them destroy our culture. Railways are the foundations of north america.. save them
