Ticket To Ride

The Delivery

While driving east on highway 22x on my way to a piece of prairie where I would fling arrows about with my bow, there was a lot of chatter on my scanner telling me that there was probably activity happening around the grain elevators bordering the Brooks sub east of Indus AB.
Soon enough I spotted grain hoppers being spotted by engine 8631 on the sidings bordering the Viterra elevator located at mile 155 on the Brooks sub.

I pulled in to the elevator parking lot and shot one photo before quickly getting back on the road and heading over to mile 153 located near the west crossing at Dalemead.

I quickly set up my camera in preparation for the empty grain train powered by 8631 in the lead, and engine 8821 the mid-train remote to put in appearance as they continued on east making hopper deliveries to possibly the Cargill and Pioneer elevators located just ahead.

At this point I called it done, and continued on my way to my original destination.
