Canadian National Train 517 originated in Halifax and worked it's way down to Liverpool where some of it's consist headed west to Middleton and on to Bridgetown, and the remaining cars south to Yarmouth. Stif grades on the line meant the train usually got two or three SW1200RSs assigned.

Before arriving is Yarmouth, 517 stops and switches the Iring Oil tank farm ob Bunker Island.

Train 25 runs from Kentville to Yarmouth overnight but before they can book off, they have to do the loacal switching. That activity took me over 8 hours!
