  1. CN Heavy-duty

    CN Heavy-duty

    By far the best hi-rail truck I've ever seen. He's got everything you could possibly want: - bugshield - rugged IH looks, compare to the modern IH offering, yuck: http://tinyurl.com/36923t - crew HQ in the back complete with a beam lamp! He's just like a SOO SD40. - massive hi-rail set-up...

    130 ton hi-rail crane

    1988 KERSHAW CN 130861, 130 ton crane based out of Winnipeg, MB - one of two such cranes on the system (as of 2005 CN had 14 hi-rail cranes ranging from 60 to 150 tons) I assume the Sask. plates are for tax purposes LOL. I caught this monster machine at the sight of a minor derailment in...

  3. Contractor hi-rail

    Contractor hi-rail

    I was sitting in the bush waiting to hear a train on the scanner (CBNS 306), when I suddenly hear something moving on the rails. Grab my camera and this is the result. Because of this MOW convoy (there were 2 more hi-rail cars, one SRS/Sperry and CBNS's own) the train I was waiting for was...

  5. Brand new hi-rail

    Brand new hi-rail

    Railfanning next to a MOW depot for three years I've managed to see all kinds of crazy hi-rails, so I can really appreciate it when CP throws in a brand new one. While I'm more of a fan of classic CP yellow hi-railers, the new stuff don't look that bad either. It was used on the Central street...

    Waiting for a W/B...

    I waited 2 hours to see a train on the CN mainline with no results. Then all of a sudden I saw a light, but it was just a hi-rail passing by... To be fair I do like the way the photo turned out.

  7. Unique Box Car Truck

    Unique Box Car Truck

    This is a truck on an old box car that was custom built by the Butte, Anaconda, & Pacific Railway. The trucks were scratch built also, in an attempt to find a replacement for the arch-bar trucks.

  11. CN hi-rail dump truck

    CN hi-rail dump truck

    A typical CN hi-rail dump truck - comes in a black or red liverie. Looks like an old IH model. I've only seen it once so don't know much else about it. I know CN has contractors to remove snow off the property do what they need a dump truck for is a mystery to me.
