Some CPKC stuff.

I got word today that CPKC 249 was going to have CP's Vancouver Olympics Unit in the lead, so I made a quick stop by Lake Forest to intercept them as well as intercept a combined 540 with an ACU leader, while there I managed to snag 149, 246, and 247 in the process. Not a bad hour. Enjoy!
