James, I see your 15 cars... and I raise you 2. I couldn't resist posting this picture after seeing James' photo of a 15 car 580 heading down the Burford Spur. On June 1, 2010, CN ran a 17 car train down the Burford, with 7 cars for Ingenia and 10 cars for SC Johnson. I don't know how I managed to get this shot without a single car in the way on Clarence Street. The classic Baker Auto Electric sign has since been replaced with a newer, much more boring one.

    Nice shot M.Smith!! As far as ‘no autos’, I could see you putting out construction cones in order to snag this. Its a tough life, eh?
