- By request, I put together this video from several trips to Canada, primarily in 1990 and 1995 covering Maine, New Brunswick, and a bit of Quebec not included in the "Sherbrooke Thunder" "Lac Megantic" and "last day of the Sherbrooke Sub" videos. I only ever shot one CP train in Maine in daylight, and the Onawa trestle shot was taken while spending all day waiting and no train ever showed up. The New Brunswick footage was part of the 1990 trip that made up the bulk of the first two videos mentioned above.

Love all the ALCO engines!!
I think they forgot to take off that van's brakes at the beginning! Great video. Love MLWs
Excellent video , beautiful classic footage of CP Rail Alco/MLW units. I love it !
The inline 6 chugging from the RS23s sounds so satisfying but i don't know the words as to why
The C-424's are so weathered the 4202 lost a digit on the cab side and is now the 420. Good stuff ☺️👍
Sat watching in UK in 2017,great film and sound ..a historic record for us all to enjoy..when loco's sounded like they were working !
Miss the yellow vans
I like the air filters on the side of M-636 #4716
and now the line is being sold back to CP
That is an outstanding video. I miss those days......
Excellent video.
Memories,, Thanks!,, As A Child I remember Trains on the Short Branch at Greenville Right Downtown on the Water, To a Pulpwood Yard..
+Bill Groder Greenville branch owned by the Bangor and Aroostook and it went to derby shops in milo, and they closed it after the main bridge bunker brook I believe was embargoed and it was to light to run most units over so 2 BL2's had the ballast removed to eliminate the weight the 52 and 54 I believe.
+Maine Railfan© I meant the Short CP branch that ran to the Lake near Rt. 6 ( Lily Bay Road ) on Google maps,
Bill Groder hmm ive never heard of that before. Ill look into it
Like these old alcos.
Very nice video and I did saw McAdam NB in this video too!!!
at 11:45 looks like he's refilling the water tank on that M630. Definitely one of the major issue on those MLWs was the leaking cooling system and it's neat to see that somebody caught this on camera.
nice video and great catch of all the train's in your video.
Very nice video of McAdam NB plus what year of McAdam NB?
The McAdam footage is from 1993.
@@fmnut after my time 1993 plus did you video in McAdam NB in 1993?
@@Garylee17 what you see is what I shot.
@@fmnut sounds good...
Nice catches! And I cant belive you didn't see any BAR units in Brownville, also the search lights have all been removed on the old CP. I think you should railfan CMQ soon!
my god all the alco's
CP would sell off all of their trackage east of Montreal in the late 90s. Now CP just bought most of it back!
SO did they stop close this line after you shot video?
The line was sold to a short line operator in 1995. It has passed through 2 more owners since then. Google "Lack Megantic derailment" for more info.
CP just bought the line back.
chuggalicious alcos
