CP 8864 east  ( CP 142 ? ) with DP 8862 works uphill through Oshawa.


 The location of the former diamond with the Oshawa Street  Railway is just this side of the distant timber bridge. 


The remains of the Oshawa Centre - East yard is on the right. Switch stands removed. Perhaps this may have been the old interchange yard with the Oshawa Street Railway ?

  1. Where is winter?!

  2. Nice image! This unit was assigned to the “Expressway” last week, interesting how the Olympic logo was painted over with no CP marking replaced.

  3. Yes, that yard was used for interchange with the Oshawa Railway. Was lucky enough in 1997 to stumble upon a CN switch job lifting two CP boxcars from the yard on their way north to the Hillcroft Street yard and the last customer on the ORy, the a former GM autoparts operation.
