CP train 923 with 4239 and VIA Rail 6455 is heading westbound at Streetsville, Ontario on the Galt Subdivision. During 1994-1995 CP had leased several VIA Rail units to assist them through their severe motive power shortage until the new GE's that were on order started arriving. Also of note; according to Branchline Magazine, this train also lifted new Caltrans F59PHM-I's 2003 and 2002 from London that day. Both of these had recently been built at the GMDD facility and were enroute to California.

    Great photo! While looking at old views of Steeetsville circa mid 1990s, I noticed that the entire GO station and platform seemed to be in a completely different position than modern times, would anyone be able to elaborate on when GO moved their platform into the center of the 2 main tracks? and I also believe the tracks were moved, or that signal cantilever in the background was moved closer towards the Missisauga Rd. level crossing
