Is it me, or is there something awkward about all of the people in there staring and you with blank expressions? Like an elegant dinner interrupted by a crude joke.

They all look like they would rather be somewhere else!

Matt is right, there are some very strange expressions from those disinterested looking people. What exactly would they be looking for? Do they take notes? Maybe they should be looking forward instead of into the past. Just seems so odd to me.
Great picture of a beautiful train. Maybe they were surprised to learn there really are rail fans who will wait in the cold for a train to come along. Not one wave, clearly not engineers!

Matt I am viewing this on a mobile device. So I zoomed in to take a look after reading your comment. That is just funny. They likely have no idea what a railfan is.

They don't look like very fun company!

How many track inspectors does it take to inspect a track? Kind of reminds me of PennDOT & how many guys does it take to hold a shovel? I would think that somewhere there's a couple bottles of wine sitting on the floor beside a couple of the inspectors. Or at least there should be.

They are all look somewhat stunned (or slightly amused) and that guy (6th from the left) even covering his mouth in shock... what in Gods name where you doing??? lol Great capture of a moment!

Lets sell it off now!

The gentleman in the center with his arms crossed is CN CEO Claude Mongeau. To his right is our local Superintendent. We did get a few friendly waves from some of the riders. This was near the end of their two-day trip and the train was running a couple hours off their original schedule, which might have contributed to the fatigued appearance of the riders.

If they're all mid and upper management, it explains their no personality, serious, indifferant expressions !

Ken I don't think the guy is covering his mouth in shock, I believe he's covering a yawn - trying to hide his "boredom" and disinterest, and the fact he wishes he were somewhere getting drunk!

I bet you would not have seen the same reaction if that were somewhere in the southeast, the cars were Tuscan, the locomotives were black and white and the riders were Mr. Wick Moorman and Co...

The guy on the right has a red solo cup! Wonder what that maybe!
