Railfanning Ontario Northland from North Bay to Porquis junction
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 сер 2024
- This is a video of a railfanning trip from North Bay Ontario to basically Cochrane. The first three clips are shot from the North Bay area with Yard 214 and 113. The next few days after we came back to familiar territory and chased 211 and 512 to and from Rouyn Noranda. After this big chase we ended up south of Cochrane where we caught 414 coming back from Cochrane and making its way to Englehart. This is where the video ends as I didn’t wanna make it too long but there is still 207 and 308 to be shown in the future.

Magnificent catches of the trains coming by and pass, I like it 5 stars.

Keep up the perfect work ,my friend, liked and subscribed, Greetings from Portugal to the USA.
Thank you!
I used to buy my ticket in Porquis Junction and flag the train down in Monteith.
I love this ! Thank You for the video !! From USA. It was many years ago I was in North Bay. Thanks again !
Glad you enjoyed it!
Terrific film of the ONR action. And what a neat surprise to see ex NS in the mix. James.
Thank you James, glad you enjoyed it
Great catches! Thanks so much!!
Great video , nice seeing the different colour schemes, the first train looked to have been a a heavy drag.
Thank you! The reason why 214 had all those engines was because they were dropping two in North Bay for maintenance.
Awesome captures 🔝👏🏼
Thanks!
Great catches and awesome video
Thank you!
How many SD40-2s are still in that green scheme like 1730? Love the video!!
No it’s only 1730 that is wearing the heritage scheme. It was painted in 2020.
Sweet
Merci!
Great video
Thank you!
Very Nice Video!
Thank you!
Really enjoyed your video and it wasn't too long IMO. Question though, the signals are dark, did they turn them off? Does ONR have PTC now?
Thanks! No ONR doesn’t have CTC anymore and it’s not looking like it’s coming back. The signal in Rouyn is for the diamond shared with CN.
So it's because in 2013 Ontario northland had passenger service and were needed because there was more than one train a day going up the line now it's basically the same train about 3 or 4 times a day
At 10:15 At 12:15 Is That The CN Diamond And Where At 12:59 & 17:09 18:54 1930 25:25 What Locations Are Those Nice Video Bud-Chris
Do they use SD70M Flared units?
Yessir ONR purchased 5 Ex NS SD70m’s and now they power a good part of the mainline freight out of Englehart.
Location 1 just outside Arntfield
Location 2 CN and ONR Diamond
Location 3 loop track in Rouyn (North of the Diamond)
Location 4 North 200ft of location 3
Location 5 Town of Arntfield

Нравиться как шуршит трава,ветки на деревьях,а Онтарию это озеро,вроде оно в Канаде ,правда это?
Yep the Ontario Northland Railway runs on the Ontario and Quebec side of Canada.
Great video I was about to ask you about the dark signals on the onr as well I think they have been that for years
Thanks. On the main ONR has discontinued the use of signals but they still use a pair of them at Rouyn Noranda as they share a diamond with CN
They should soon be up and running again soon as ontc is getting the northlander back in 2026
See some old GO cars in the backyard at the beginning. I subscribed.
thanks!
You do because ontc has the contract to refurbish them for go
🥰🥰🥰❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
May I ask…what’s in the covered gons?
Those gondolas haul a mix of mostly copper extract but sometimes a little bit of nickel depending on where it comes from. It all goes to the Horne smelter in Rouyn to be processed.
What is being carried in those covered hoppers?
They carry copper extract for the Horne smelter in Rouyn Noranda
why is there go train cars at the start??
The GO cars are in North bay for refurbishment at ONR’s Shops
That 2120 and 23, are they 70ac's and where did they get them?
The SD70M are dc and they are ex NS
