Torpedo Tubes

Took a trip up to North Bay recently to visit family. Additionally, I headed over to the Ontario Northland headquarters on McIntyre Street as I was also in the area to shoot their unique operations. Coming into the trip, I didn't have much of a plan to go off of. Luckily I met a very friendly fellow named Kyle who helped me pinpoint when the trains would operate.

What is pictured is actually the last train I shot while vacationing - ONT 1603 working the evening yard job, switching around the countless acid tank cars which were Quebec-bound. I've wanted to shoot the Ontario Northland GP9s specifically for years now with their unique specifications; namely the large torpedo-style steam generation air tanks on top of the locomotive. The units also sport high-noses and short-hood mounted bells. My schedule was very tight as it was, so I'm very lucky to have been able to squeeze this shot in on the last day!
