Car 4548 was used to tow it off of CP's transporter. I first spotted it at Lambton Yard last Monday, July 8. It's taken a week to get it to Hillcrest?! There was another set at the west end of Lambton yesterday (July 15) but there were too many freight cars in the way to clearly identify it.

Not quite a week. CP had delivered it to Hillcrest Friday night (July 12), but with there being no offloads on weekends, it had to wait its turn until yesterday morning. The siding at Hillcrest can accommodate a single delivery at a time, so in practice, only one car can be offloaded per day. Another problem is that the local CP switcher that delivers to Hillcrest doesn't run every night. Adding the fact that both 4560 & 4576 arrived at Lambton yard more or less at the same time, it was a matter of chance that 4576 won the coin toss and was delivered to Hillcrest first on Wednesday night (July 10), and 4560 had to wait two more days. 6 hours ago, Gil said: There was another set at the west end of Lambton yesterday (July 15) but there were too many freight cars in the way to clearly identify it. Unless there is a delivery from La Pocatiere via CN - which is unlikely - that must be 4561, which has been in Toronto since Saturday morning.

crs1026 Posted July 19, 2019 Report Share Posted July 19, 2019 Photo on a FB group shows 4403 on a CN freight in Quebec yesterday, presumably Hillcrest bound after rewelding. Should show up at Lambton in a couple of days. - Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It maybe be off loaded next week and it so, close to the 19 week turn around time frame for these cars. What happen to 4400??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying much for cars coming from Kingston. At the rate Kingston doing their share number of cars, it could be 2021 when the last car is ship. Better off having Thunder Bay finish the work. Only 36 to come and that would make it about Feb 2020 for the last car to be ship from TB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
