Before too long, it was finally time to head out into the real world.
Waterloo Regional Police Service was on hand to help manage traffic. It was interesting to see that only the Eastbound lanes of traffic were stopped with the railway arms - I can't think of any other place I've ever seen that where only half of the crossing arms come down. It makes perfect sense, but in my mind, I guess I'd just always pictured that "all" traffic would be stopped, here.
Heading across Northfield.
Best job in the world right now!
Approaching Colby/Conestogo.
I couldn't stick around for the rest of the afternoon (I do have a job besides getting excited about LRT, if you can imagine), but I understand that 502 was pulled up and down twice (both NB and SB tracks) before returning to the yard later in the afternoon.
What's the crenellated stuff around the train in those pics?
