No big surprise Guy---here's an eastbound leaving from the Leanne Station on the Leetown Division heading for the St.Henri Yard in Quebec.

Spring and summers are always busy on the Leetown Division and extra passenger trains are required as both seasonal farm workers and vacationers travel to the area for both work and pleasure.The Elora Gorge & Eastern and the Niagara Peninsula RR play an important role as they provide a direct link to the east coast of Canada.Passenger trains on this route always include sleeper cars for the 3 day journey which originates in the province of Prince Edward Island.Farm workers prefer a more economical choice of train fares and the EG&E sleeper Indigo Bay is perfect while vacationers prefer a more private and comfortable accomodations such as Canadian National's Island Park.Here's both of those cars which have just arrived in Leetown.

A new loco on the roster from Mantua. Runs good, may need a little tune up. I need to change out the couplers.
