CN 3058

CP 8739
Title:  CP 8739
Description:  I don't always venture to the far west end of the CP Welland yard, where there's not usually any action. But today was the exception as I watched Train 237 doing some final hookups for their trip to Toronto. I heard the train advise the Rail Traffic Controller they were ready to head west, with no stops before the Toronto destination - but to my surprise, instead of departing, it slowly backed into the yard and disappeared.
