CN 2759 West passing Pelletier QC - a photo on Flickriver

            Whenever possible when travelling between Nova Scotia and Ontario I'll get off the Trans-Canada and detour along the Pelletier Sub. Often it doesn't pan out and and I see know trains and end up adding an hour to my trip. 

But on this eastbound trip I was poking around the tracks a bit further east when I was surprised by this westbound with a silver and blue leader. Despite the dreary weather I turned the car around and headed west to Pelletier. 

I tried to catch him again but giving him a nearly two mile head start while I waited for him to clear the crossing didn't help my cause.
