Working outside of the CP Vaughan Yard. I saw this being shipped out. New home or parts??Don't know. Here are some facts:

6700 track tamper (commonly manufactured by Jackson / Harsco Rail) is a heavy-duty railway maintenance machine. It is built for production and switch tamping, using hydraulic workheads and squeeze-action vibration to pack ballast securely beneath railroad ties.Key FeaturesWorkheads: Four independent workhead carriages with hydraulic vibrator motors delivering about 4,500 vibrations per minute (VPM).Lifting & Lining: Utilizes a robust jack beam with rail clamps and servo valves to safely lift, align, and surface the track.Capacity: Capable of handling moderate track raises up to 4 inches at a rate of roughly 20 ties per minute.Tie Compatibility: Highly effective on both traditional wood ties and modern concrete ties.

👷‍♂️Dave‪@ccrx6700‬ can explain this machine better than anyone here⤵️

Subscribers, viewers, and new subscribers. One of the capital videos of the channel was The Search for CN 6060. A journey to find CN 6060 preserved but out of the eyes of the public. The video and trip were Aug 2022. There was a series of vignette videos that followed along with the trip to Alberta and back.

This new video that's coming up is the last leg home on the MS Chi-Cheemaun.

Make sure to go back and check out the earlier parts of the series if you're just joining us, and let me know in the comments if you've ever sailed on the Chi-Cheemaun or caught 6060 out on the rails!

A Piece of Railway History in Tillsonburg! 🚂

This side dump car is sitting at the OSR switching yard here in Tillsonburg, and it has quite a story to tell.

This piece of equipment is CP 8235, and it’s a genuine former Canadian Pacific Railway unit. It was originally numbered CP 8822 before finding its way to the Ontario Southland Railway (OSR) for its current life in maintenance and work service.

It’s always fascinating to see how these old workhorses continue to serve the rails long after their original mainline days.

A bit about the OSR Tillsonburg yard: The OSR’s operations in Tillsonburg run along the remaining portion of the former CP Port Burwell Subdivision. This line was originally built back in 1895 as the Tillsonburg, Lake Erie & Pacific railway. It was eventually leased to the Canadian Pacific Railway for 999 years starting in 1904.

By the late 1990s, the line was nearly abandoned due to declining traffic, but the Ontario Southland Railway stepped in and took over operations on February 26, 1999. Since then, OSR has done an incredible job revitalizing the line, growing traffic, and maintaining the infrastructure that keeps our local industries connected to the wider rail network.

It’s great to see this history preserved right here in our own backyard!
