>>1044339Neat! I used to have a relative who had a farm near Montney, BC (I had to look it up and found it 56.496618,-121.009951 ). The original house was located where the pin is. The field gradually sloped down to the r.o.w.
Every summer from 1976 to 1983 we used to go visit them and the BC Rail went right down their property. I'd hear the horn blow in the distance from the southbound train every evening after dinner and go running down to the tracks. Usually got there in time to wave to the engineer who always waved back and honked the horn.
I remember counting 60 or so freight cars and always those big green 6-axle Alco/MLW's, usually 3 on the front. Always the highlight of my day. :^)
