A tale of two worlds - To the right: foliage is in full bloom at Waterloo Ave Park in Guelph, Ontario with a sea of orange and red basking in the warm light of a bright overcast day. To the left is an active transportation corridor - for Trains, Automobiles and pedestrians. Genesee and Wyoming orange is on the point as train 431 begins the journey down Kent Street. A pedestrian gestures to Engineer Ted Sillis to blown his horn, to which Ted reciprocates with a quick toot.
