Returning south (in ice pellets!) after testing the Vankleek sub and L'Orignal spur. I wonder why Breadalbane qualified for lights and bells. It doesn't appear to be very busy, and it's not the lowest-visibility crossing on this line... This is a 1958 Budd RDC {Rail Diesel Car}. It was originally with CN passenger services, transferred to VIA Rail, then finally back to CN and converted to a track geometry car. It measures all sorts of track parameters. This was its first appearance in the area since CN reacquired the Renfrew, Beachburg and Vankleek lines.
