CP 8756, 9720, 8537 (train 111) Northbound at mile 58.14 of the CP MacTier sub in Utopia at the BCRY raiway diamond (CN Meaford Sub) pulling 125 double stack cars, and 2 auto racks. CP work men have been upgrading this area's tracks, crossing, diamond, railroad ties, and signals in the last few months. An older school bus driver had stopped at this crossing like he is supposed to, saw the train way down the tracks, and did NOT cross over, he turned his bus off, and waited! (He had about a minute and a half of clearance before the train made the crossing where he COULD have crossed-the train was very far away) so hats off to the driver for doing his job and realizing that 5 minutes isnt worth the risk of LIVES being lost!!!!!!!! Just as the train approaches, a second school bus approaches, on the side of the crossing I was filming on. Thank you to him for not pulling into my shot!!!
