This site was started so I could share my collection of railway images I have been taking for the past few years. All photos are my own work unless otherwise noted. From time to time I travel and try to take photos in different locations. I will post mostly images shot in Prince Rupert but not limited to here.

Loading the car float
Well I thought I'd share a few more photos of the crew loading the rail barge the other day. The first one shows CN and Foss crews bolting the switch points before pushing rail cars on the the barge. The next on shows the locomotives backing down the grade with 5 bulkhead flat cars used as idlers. You can see the cars on the mainline in the left of the photo. The last show a hopper being pushed along the outside of the barge. The pictures where all taken from the ramp control room located in the tower closest to shore.

Lot's of Methanol being transported. Interesting material. Very dangerous, yet is present many cooked vegetables, and the artificial sweetener in diet soft drinks breaks down into methanol during digestion!
