On Saturday I went railfanning at the Bayview Junction bridge. I ended up seeing 4 trains but I missed CN 393 (because of my stupidity). I got to Bayview at 3:00PM. I was trying to get CN 385 but I ended up missing it. 5 minutes later I heard "CN 385 clear expection left side". 2 minutes later CN 434 came around the corner with CN 5695 and IC 1020. The train had 138 cars.
25 minutes later I heard the hotbox detector go off right near the Hamilton yard. I knew it was Via 92 because I was expecting it. 10 minutes after it hit the hotbox detector it came by the Bayview bridge with Via 915 and 4 or 5 cars.
I decided to go to the lower part of the bridge just so I could get good pictures if a train came around the corner. Not even 10 minutes after I went to the lower part of the bridge, a train came off the Dundas Sub. As it came around I noticed there was a BNSF on it but I couldn't tell if it was a Pumpkin or a Warbonnet. As it got even closer I noticed not only did it have a BNSF it also had a Blue,Red and White Grand Trunk and that's not all! It also had my favourite type of CN engine it the lead. The engine numbers were CN 8015,GT 5937 and BNSF 930. I wanted to try and get it at King Road in Aldershot so I left and as I was leaving I saw the light turn from Red to Limited. My stupidity ended up not getting CN 394 at King Road and my stupidity also made me miss CN 393 (which could of had something good on it). It was a fun hour of railfanning!
