The very last light of a July day illuminates a busy time at the station in Brockville, Ontario. The Ottawa section of a combined train from Toronto will depart behind an FPA4 and two GP9’s. After it clears the area, the two FPA4/FPB4 on the house track will pull forward and then back to take the cars dropped on the main to proceed to Montreal. Once the passenger commotion is over, the CP local will finish its work and head for Smiths Falls. This is the only time I recall seeing GP9’s on a VIA train.
