Caption: Here's a street side view looking west of the impressive Sioux Lookout, ON station, with VIA 001 The Canadian stretched out along the platform on CN's Allanwater and Redditt Sub. mainline track.
With a headend crew change and refueling taking place here, the front of the train is only a few passenger cars past the west end of the station leaving about 20 car lengths, or more than a 1/4 mile walking distance for folks in Prestige Class to make their way to this location.
It was a cool, overcast, but pleasant mid-day arrival in The Sioux and lots of passengers took advantage of the 35-minute stop to detrain and stretch their legs.
